Description
The web is a massive collection of interrelated pages. Locating the precise information can be difficult to locate. A number of organizations called search services (often called search engines) operate web sites that help locate the information needed. They maintain huge databases related to information provided on the Web and the Internet. Special programs called spiders continually look for new information and update the search service’s databases. Additionally, search services provide special programs called search engines.
