How do web crawlers work?

A web crawler is basically a search engine, except that it arranges results in decreasing order of relevance. Web crawlers are mainly used for the grunt work of searching and indexing pages while search engines display the final results. The strength behind a good search engine is the algorithm of its web crawlers. Algorithm refers to a set of rules that a program uses to complete a task. The better and more fine-tuned the algorithm is, the more accurate your search results will be. This is why there are different search engines and some are better than others.
