Mostof our Search index is built through the work of software known as crawlers. These automatically visit publicly accessible webpages and follow links on those pages, much like you would if you were browsing content on the web. They go from page to page and store information about what they find on these pages and other publicly-accessible content in Google's Search index.

Because the web and other content is constantly changing, our crawling processes are always running to keep up. They learn how often content they've seen before seems to change and revisit as needed. They also discover new content as new links to those pages or information appear.


Google also provides a free toolset called Search Console that creators can use to help us better crawl their content. They can also make use of established standards like sitemaps or robots.txt to indicate how often content should be visited or if it shouldn't be included in our Search index at all.


In fact, we have multiple indexes of different types of information, which is gathered through crawling, through partnerships, through data feeds being sent to us and through our own encyclopedia of facts, the Knowledge Graph.


These many indexes mean that you can search within millions of books from major libraries, find travel times from your local public transit agency, or find data from public sources like the World Bank.


Google Search is a fully-automated search engine that uses software known as web crawlers that explore the web regularly to find pages to add to our index. In fact, the vast majority of pages listed in our results aren't manually submitted for inclusion, but are found and added automatically when our web crawlers explore the web. This document explains the stages of how Search works in the context of your website. Having this base knowledge can help you fix crawling issues, get your pages indexed, and learn how to optimize how your site appears in Google Search.


Before we get into the details of how Search works, it's important to note that Google doesn't accept payment to crawl a site more frequently, or rank it higher. If anyone tells you otherwise, they're wrong.


The first stage is finding out what pages exist on the web. There isn't a central registry of all web pages, so Google must constantly look for new and updated pages and add them to its list of known pages. This process is called "URL discovery". Some pages are known because Google has already visited them. Other pages are discovered when Google follows a link from a known page to a new page: for example, a hub page, such as a category page, links to a new blog post. Still other pages are discovered when you submit a list of pages (a sitemap) for Google to crawl.


Once Google discovers a page's URL, it may visit (or "crawl") the page to find out what's on it. We use a huge set of computers to crawl billions of pages on the web. The program that does the fetching is called Googlebot (also known as a crawler, robot, bot, or spider). Googlebot uses an algorithmic process to determine which sites to crawl, how often, and how many pages to fetch from each site. Google's crawlers are also programmed such that they try not to crawl the site too fast to avoid overloading it. This mechanism is based on the responses of the site (for example, HTTP 500 errors mean "slow down").


During the crawl, Google renders the page and runs any JavaScript it finds using a recent version of Chrome, similar to how your browser renders pages you visit. Rendering is important because websites often rely on JavaScript to bring content to the page, and without rendering Google might not see that content.


After a page is crawled, Google tries to understand what the page is about. This stage is called indexing and it includes processing and analyzing the textual content and key content tags and attributes, such as elements and alt attributes, images, videos, and more.


During the indexing process, Google determines if a page is a duplicate of another page on the internet or canonical. The canonical is the page that may be shown in search results. To select the canonical, we first group together (also known as clustering) the pages that we found on the internet that have similar content, and then we select the one that's most representative of the group. The other pages in the group are alternate versions that may be served in different contexts, like if the user is searching from a mobile device or they're looking for a very specific page from that cluster.


Google also collects signals about the canonical page and its contents, which may be used in the next stage, where we serve the page in search results. Some signals include the language of the page, the country the content is local to, and the usability of the page.


The collected information about the canonical page and its cluster may be stored in the Google index, a large database hosted on thousands of computers. Indexing isn't guaranteed; not every page that Google processes will be indexed.


When a user enters a query, our machines search the index for matching pages and return the results we believe are the highest quality and most relevant to the user's query. Relevancy is determined by hundreds of factors, which could include information such as the user's location, language, and device (desktop or phone). For example, searching for "bicycle repair shops" would show different results to a user in Paris than it would to a user in Hong Kong.


Based on the user's query the search features that appear on the search results page also change. For example, searching for "bicycle repair shops" will likely show local results and no image results, however searching for "modern bicycle" is more likely to show image results, but not local results.

The program will likely take longer than 5 weeks to complete, which is perfectly fine! The activities progress from easier to more challenging as the weeks continue. Each activity should be practiced until mastery before moving on to the next day.


Website Crawling is the automated fetching of web pages by a software process, the purpose of which is to index the content of websites so they can be searched. The crawler analyzes the content of a page looking for links to the next pages to fetch and index.


There are steps you can take to build your website in such a way that it is easier for search engines to crawl it and provide better search results. The end result will be more traffic to your site, and enabling your readers to find your content more effectively.

With some researching on the topic and trying to understand on why Google is not indexing my web-pages. It seems that my webpages are all implemented as client-side rendering and Searching engines do not perform JS rendering while crawling.


Google and Bing now render JavaScript when crawling websites. However, there is a lot that can go wrong in that process. The first step you should take in debugging the problem is to sign up for Google Search Console, verify your site, and then use the inspection tool. It can show a rendered screenshot of your site so that you can see if Googlebot is actually seeing your content or not.


Other search engines such as Yandex, and Baidu are still not indexing client-side rendered websites as far as I know. Since Google has a 90%+ share of the search market, this may not be a deal breaker for you.


Google seems to be taking months to index any new website these days, regardless of whether it it requires rendering. I'd expect an 8 month old site to have at least some of its content indexed, but keep in mind that it could just be a matter of waiting longer.


Googlebot has separate queues for regular crawling and rendering. It does a first pass to grab the server supplied HTML then it comes back later to do the rendering. Google made some announcements that typical delay between first crawl and rendering is now down to seconds. Despite that, websites that require rendering often seem to lag in indexing by days or weeks compared to pages that don't need to be rendered.

When you are using a single-page-application (SPA) framework, it is tempting to just use a single URL for your entire website. Doing so will kill your SEO. Google needs to be able to direct users to specific content deep within your site instead of sending all visitors to your home page. That means that you need to assign each piece of content on your site its own URL. Google will only crawl and index content that has its own URL. If you have a true one-page site, Google will only ever index the content that is visible when the home page loads.


Your web app needs to load for every URL on your site. The typical way of implementing this is to put a front controller rule into .htaccess that causes index.html to be served, regardless of what URL is requested.
