What is the difference between Indexing and Crawling?

alex.thomson · 09-07-2016, 04:54 AM

Crawling and indexing are two such terms.
Crawling:
When Google visits your website for tracking purposes. This process is done by Google’s Spider crawler.
Indexing:
After crawling has been done, the results get put onto Google’s index (i.e. web search).

Crawling is the process or reading through your webpage source by search engine spiders. They provide a cache certificate after a successful crawl. Indexing is updating the cached webpages in search engine database. Indexed webpages are now ready for search engine rankings.

Indexing- Indexing takes place after a crawled URIs are processed. Note that there may be several URIs that are crawled but there could be fewer of them whose content will be processed through indexing.

Crawling- Crawling takes place when there is a successful fetching of unique URIs which can be traced from valid links from other web pages.

Crawling is the process of google bot going from one page to another and reading it.
Indexing is the process when crawlers read that page and save it into their directory.
