How Search Engines Work.

Only two types of major search engines exist, spider indexed and human indexed. It is very vital to understand how these search engines work and which to worry about more. The more you understand the closer you will be to having a top ranking with any of the major search engines. .

Search engines are designed to be able to find a site and its pages according to different search criteria. They work in very much the same way as an automated online yellow pages.

Search engines take the information thats is "fed" to them. How this information is “fed” to the search engine is totally up to you and how you want your site viewed on a search engine.

Please remember that the purpose of search engine optimization is all about getting you a top ranking on any search engine not making your site "pretty". Search engines do not notice how much flash or pretty art you have. Search engines only notice what is "fed" to them. About 95% of the search engines on the Internet are self indexing or spider robot indexed. The other 5% are human indexed.

We do need to not that you can not optimize your site for a human indexed search engine. Unless someone at that search engine likes your site you will not come up on thier site. The good news with this is that human indexed search engines only make up about %5 of all search engines. We will not spend much time looking at human indexed search engines because of this.
