How Google Bots and Web Crawlers Work

The internet and World Wide Web has become an inseparable part of our lives. Be it some research work, searching for a suitable bride, booking air tickets or making bank transactions, we always resort to the internet to help us out. This whole idea of the internet being so user friendly would not have been possible without the presence of search engines and web crawlers. The Google bot and web crawlers work tirelessly to make our surfing experience enjoyable.

Google carries out the process of parallel computing with the help of thousands of distributed and interconnected low-cost computers. The working methodology of Google is based on three parts:

Google bot

This acts as a web crawler.

The indexer

The indexer sorts every word and stores the resulting index of words in a huge database.

The query processor

This processor compares the search query to the index and recommends the documents that it considers most relevant.

What the Google bot actually does is send a request to a web server for a web page, download the entire page, then hand it over to Google’s indexer. With the help of the thousands of interconnected computers, it can thus work with thousands of web pages simultaneously.

Advantage of Windows Web Hosting

Windows web hosting service has gained recent popularity over linux web hosting in the recent years. It has gained popularity because it was Microsoft who invented ASP and ASP.NET language, which has made the programming relatively easier. Here we don’t even have to worry if the server supports extensions as with an UNIX platform. We can skip the extra effort of learning a new language just to maintain our website as the windows based server makes the process much easier. The major advantages are as follows:

Ease of use of ASP applications

The use of active server pages or ASP for having a dynamically database driven website makes windows hosting much superior as compared to others. ASP makes the web pages much faster and robust than server side scripting.

Ease of use of VBscript

The ASP pages can be written using VBscript which makes them much easier to design and test for errors later on.

Access compatibility

If the website needs to access data from an access database, a windows server will be able to make integration much easier as it is able to integrate this database seamlessly.

Development

Best Modules of Drupal

Best Modules of Drupal

Drupal provides some extremely functional modules in its core package. But often, the web designer needs to use more modules for providing the right content in his website. There are three kinds of modules in Drupal – core modules, community written modules (which are written by developers under open source license for public use), and custom modules. Some of the best Drupal modules are

Forum

This is a core module that comes with Drupal. A forum is most often needed in a website, and adds to its interactive nature. The forum module allows users to create threads and categories. Replies to the thread or other replies are shown in a graphically intuitive manner.

Web form

This module is very useful in taking flexible input from the user. The user can fill forms and submit them. This is very useful for contact sheets and registration. It features text area, radio buttons, combo box, etc.

Tiny MCE WYSIWIG Editor

The mistake web developers often commit is to think that the end-user is like them and can write html. But most users can’t insert images, links or format text using plain HTML. So this WYSIWIG editor comes in handy for the common layman user.

These tools make the work of both a user and a designer easier, and increase the website’s appeal!
