A crawler is a program that visits Web sites and reads their pages and other information in order to create entries for a search engine index. The major search engines on the Web all have such a program, which is also known as a "spider" or a "bot." Crawlers are typically programmed to visit sites that have been submitted by their owners as new or updated. Entire sites or specific pages can be selectively visited and indexed.

Crawler-based search engines have three major elements. First is the spider, also called the crawler. The spider visits a web page, reads it, and then follows links to other pages within the site. This is what it means when someone refers to a site being “spidered” or “crawled".

Web crawlers/Web spider are mainly used -

1)to create a copy of all your visited pages for later processing by a search engine that will index the downloaded pages to provide fast searches.
2)for automating maintenance tasks on a Web site, such as checking links or validating HTML code.
3)to gather specific types of information from Web pages, such as harvesting e-mail addresses (usually for sending spam)

Crawlers apparently gained the name because they crawl through a site a page at a time, following the links to other pages on the site until all pages have been read.

Great explanation.

A search engine crawler is a program or automated script that browses the World Wide Web in a methodical manner in order to provide up to date data to the particular search engine. While search engine crawlers go by many different names, such as web spiders and automatic indexers, the job of the search engine crawler is still the same.

A net crawler is a web larva that helps in Web categorization. They crawl one page at a time through an internet site till all pages are indexed.
