How search works

Search's major functions

  • Crawl and index
  • Provide answers
  • Keep you coming back

Untitled Slide

Google (and other search engines) crawl every page on the Internet

Links lead them down the right path

Engines read code and store selected pieces to recall later when needed for search

Untitled Slide

Google takes your search query and scours through billions of documents in less than a second

It provides answers (results) based on its algorithm

Untitled Slide

Two main factors with search

  • Content on the page (and code)
  • Links pointing to the page (popularity)
