Actually Google is such a huge search engine and its spiders/robots are so advanced that usually within less then a week of your website's existence, its already found it and added it to its database. I never submit to searchs yet all my sites just get added. Thats why searchs engines work so well for illegal sites, cause they are meant to actually search the net without you have to submit them anything. Submitting just speeds up the process.

how exactly do spiders work? does it check a database of newly registered domains? if so... how does it find geocitie sites and such which are hosted on existing domains

spiders from what i understand not very much of, but from what i heard, they just ping random sites fitting the specific specs of the current search query it's undergoing, and if it meets the standards for be submitteted into thier index or database for their searchengine. Once verified to be submitted it send the <url, Keywords, Description> to the Robot that filters out unwanted sites to be submitted, but it mainly searches for Meta Tags in a html/php documents..
i.e

Code Select Expand


<Meta name="LoRD`NiKKoN" content="Author">
<Meta name="2003 &copy; ViaL<>NeT" content="CopyRight">
<Meta name="This Site is the Best!" content="Description"> <----
<Meta name="Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah" content="KeyWords"> <----- The one aboev and this one are the ones mainly looked at


Once it's done the query and filtering of all the urls with unwanted keywords, like Warez, Porn, XXX, Sex, Marijuana, Cop Killing, or anything else thats on the filter list, will not be added to the submitted list.

Well thats all i know about them. If i'm incorrect please correct me....

I supposivly going to be developing one for my vb project, so once i start that up i would be more of help :\

The basic function of a spider is to follow links. Picking random places to visit won't work very well.

Well, I can not say in general how spiders/crawlers work. I have had discussions about Google's crawler ("GoogleBot"), however. Google has a period during each month when its server updates its database of back-links and page ranking (sorting). This process lasts from about 3 to 5 days and is performed by GoogleBot.

When it finds a new web site (from following links found on pages it knows), it will visit the page every couple of days checking for content changes. For pages that don't appear to be updating, it will no longer be so up-to-date on its listings of the web site. If the targetted web site appears to be constantly updating, GoogleBot will continue to visit it and update its records on a daily basis.

So if there's a known web page to Google which is updated often, a link could be placed on that web site to a new web page, and it could be within a couple days for Google to know of the new web site and list it on its directories.

[Adron]

So, basically spiders crawl the web. If you're not part of the web, you won't be automagically found.

so i should find a few people on google and link to them and get them to link to me so "googlebot" finds my site?

Rhino: no, what you need to do is to use the google link provided earlier in this posting and add yourself, then continue to update your page more than once a week, more action will allow you to be noticed and move up in the chain of weblinks.

Both are possible solutions. Google found the BotDev web site from other listing pages which linked to it.

Do you actually *know* that? Isn't it possible that some random visitor entered it into google's submission page?
