GOOGLE: How does it work

What is google?
As it seems to be a foolish question to all reading my blog. But as we know that it is a very powerful search engine which produce unbelievable results by accepting predefined commands and any string.
It is a powerful tool for the hackers, crakers, script kiddies to gather confidential and sensitive informations which is not visible through common search.

How does it work?
It indexes pages on the web by using Spiders, crawlers or Robots. Google's spider, GoogleBot uses links on web pages. It travels from site to site by using these links. When google finds a new web page, its crawler crawls the page and transport it back on the google database server. These bots keep on crawling the sites to keep the google database updated. When we are looking for any search using a string it shows thousands of results based on the priority or the website describing the keyword show the result.


You can optimise your results using different syntaxes such as intitle, inurl, intext, file type etc. I have already added one post regarding the optimisation of your search using google.
