How Search Engine Works!!! Google Crawling, Indexing & Matching Processes.

Dear All,

This  is regarding Google Search Engine Process. As we all are SEO person, for us client is our God. Our main motto is to provide business. We mainly work for them to provide business online i.e is Online Marketing. So, it's important for us to know the basic, how this Search Engine Process actually work!!!
Here we go!!!

Google Search Engine Process mainly includes Google Crawling, Indexing & Matching Processes. These processes as as follows.

Google Crawling:

  • Google visits billions of website pages. Google finds more pages by following (Crawling) the links it finds on those billions of pages. These Crawling & Parsing of web links is generally termed as Google Crawling and it's mainly done byGoogle Spiders.

Google Indexing:

  • Google stores the information it finds in its index. Google’s index is like a huge filing system for all the pages it finds. Indexing is the second major part of SEO process. 

Google Keywords Matching Process:

  • When someone go for keywords Research then this process comes into play. Let clear it with an example. Suppose someone wants business online by best company. He comes to Google Search and writes india's largest online b2b marketplace. Then Google matching process starts searching these keywords india's largest online b2b marketplace in its indexing space. Various paid and non paid result comes on Google search page and client gets the genuine result.Keywords play a vital role in this process. Refer to images that i attached with this mail ( SEO-Process & Matching Process images ).

  • For clearing this process refer to video How Search Engine Works!!! given by Matt Cutts ( Matthew "Matt" Cutts works voluntarily for the Search Quality team in Google, working on search engine optimization issues ) Shown below.

Curix InfoTech Private Limited- We offer Best Solutions to the Penguin Recovery

How to Recover from Penguin Attack
In April 2012, Google rolled out a change to its ranking algorithmic. Google Penguin, as it became known, hits sites where it hurts; in their rankings. One year on, many websites haven’t recovered their lost traffic. Yet rehabilitation is possible. James Newhouse, of digital marketing agency Receptional.com is one of the few people with experience of managing a full recovery. Here, he outlines his Penguin recovery strategy.
In May 2012 Barry Schwartz, the executive editor of Search Engine Roundtable conducted a survey, asking his readers how they had been affected by Penguin. His survey discovered that 65% of the 1,000 people polled had been negatively affected by Penguin.
At the beginning of this year, he surveyed the same people to find out how many had recovered. The results showed that 94% of Google Penguin victims had not fully recovered
 Full Penguin recovery
As we near the one-year anniversary of Penguin – with more updates expected – here is a proven approach to getting your site back into its deserved position in Google’s listings.
Penguin pain
In April 2012, Receptional took on a new client, a major retailer. We can’t tell you who they are, but if you’re based in the UK, you’ll know the name, and we were very excited about working with them.
Two days later the client received an “unnatural link” warning via Google’s Webmaster Tools Oh dear. The website’s traffic plummeted by 62%.
Keyword rankings, including those for the site’s brand name, had dropped by as many as 50 places in the search engine results. This was a real worry for a retailer that received around 70% of its organic traffic from brand name searches.
No other Receptional clients were affected by Google Penguin. And, at first, the update didn’t even have a name. So, all we could do was investigate.
We discovered that the drop in traffic had two causes:
·         a manual penalty against ‘link spam’ and
·         an algorithmic penalty, later confirmed as Penguin
Our Penguin recovery plan
Our team decided on two main objectives. In the short term, we had to create alternative traffic sources to replace the lost revenue. This would give us time to investigate the penalties further and decide how to overcome them. And the second, of course, was to recover as quickly as possible.
So, here’s what we did:
1.      Our PPC team set up a “brand only” campaign so that searchers were still able to find our client in the search results.
2.      At the same time, we built a new website on a fresh domain. The domain name was very similar to the client’s existing site, and very quickly we were able to rank for the client’s main brand term.
3.      Once the new domain was ranking well, we were able to stop spending on the PPC campaign. We were able to focus on investigating the reasons for the penalties.
Penguin hunting
We kicked off with a review of all of the site’s backlinks. We wanted to understand why the client had been penalized.
Using Majestic SEO’s backlink data as well as Google’s Webmaster Tools data we discovered that the site had been affected by a negative SEO campaign targeted at a partner site that linked directly to our client. The attack planted hidden links within the CSS page styling. The attacker had used hidden anchor text that a search engine spider would clearly recognize as spam.
Luckily, this problem was easily fixed. We made contact with the relevant webmasters, who removed the links. We then submitted a re-inclusion request to Google, and waited to hear back.
When we did, the news wasn’t good. The re-inclusion request had been denied.
Oh dear! (To put it mildly) We clearly needed to investigate further.
Adapting the strategy in line with this new Google update
Google’s main objective with the Penguin update was to improve the quality of its search results. Google was penalizing websites with an unnatural back link profile – often due to black hat techniques – by giving them lower rankings.
We went for a “back to basics” approach. We decided to review of all of the site’s backlinks manually. Yes, that’s right. We downloaded all 30,000 backlinks into a spreadsheet and went through them one-by-one looking for spam.
It was a time-intensive method, but it gave us great insight into why our client had been hit.
A second penalty
First, we found a group of paid links that pointed at our client. We noticed, too, that the paid links pointed to other sites, which had also suffered from penalties.
However, the targeted websites were not suffering a penalty on their brand name. So, we concluded that there were two penalties at work: an algorithmic penalty (Penguin) and a manual penalty against the brand name.
Created a unique process for link removal pre Disavow tool
We wanted our second re-inclusion request to succeed, so we invented a system for categorizing and removing the backlinks.
Once we had identified spam links, we approached webmasters to get them removed. Often, this involved dealing with blackmail: webmasters attempted to cash in on the removal of malicious links, asking for fees to take them down. Others were simply uncooperative or didn’t reply to our requests.
 Our second re-inclusion request
We made a second re-inclusion request. This time we included a covering letter meticulously documenting our research and our process. We were able to list:
·         All links found – categorized by type and given a quality rating.
·         All links we had wanted removing – including emails sent, responses received and the webmasters’ details.
·         All the links we had managed to remove.
·         A list of links we couldn’t remove.
·         A list of paid banners and links that webmasters had refused to mark up as 'no follow'.
Again, this request was rejected.
It was clear that Google had imposed a threshold – a proportion of links that needed to be removed before re-inclusion would be granted – and we had failed to hit that threshold.
We were stuck.
But, we weren’t the only ones. And in July 2012, Google’s head of web spam, Matt Cutts, announced that Google would be creating a disavow tool as part of its Webmaster Tools suite.
Google releases the Disavow tool
As soon as the tool became available, we were able to add a list of links at both domain level (domain:sample.com) and link level, along with our comments.
We concluded that the disavow.txt file works in the same way as a robots.txt file. It is really just a list of domains/links that Google will ignore. Google treats the links pointing to your domain as if they don’t exist.
The team allowed six weeks for Google to re-crawl all of the links. Almost to the day, we received a message informing us that the manual (brand) penalty had been revoked.
 Use the Disavow tool wisely
If your site has been affected by Penguin, it is crucial that you use the disavow tool wisely. By manually assessing our client’s backlink profile we were able to provide Google with a focussed list of links to ignore; the tool gave us control of the small percentage of inbound links that had caused the problem.
It’s also crucial to know whether you’ve been affected by an algorithmic penalty, a manual penalty or both. There are easy ways of knowing, but that’s a whole separate blog post.
If you abuse the tool and ask Google to disavow links that aren’t in breach of its guidelines, you could do more harm than good. You’ll be undoing your previous link building efforts.
If you are unsure it is always best to ask an expert to review your backlinks.
 Successful re-inclusion
Our efforts meant that both the algorithmic and manual penalties were overcome. And, crucially, the client’s brand term returned to the top of Google’s results pages.
Our client not only started to appear in the search results again, but also experienced a 48% increase in its organic traffic, surpassing its original position before the link based penalties was imposed.
