Everyday there are billions of people using search engines to find information, and Google is the one that is used most frequently. Once people are searching for a product or service that falls into your business range, you will want your website to show up on the first page of the search results, so that your business is visible to your potential customers. The process of doing search engine optimization is tedious and time-consuming, but it is worth doing. Once you've known how Google finds sites, you'll have a clear direction to go.

First, you need to know that Google uses spider program that is also known as crawler or robot. Googlebot, which is Google's crawler, goes to a website, scans the content and documents, and hand off the collected information to an indexing program. The indexer then sorts and stores the terms that appear on the web pages in Google's index database.

Besides, Google can also find a website by links. Once Google finds a page of your website, it crawls the page, and then goes through all your pages by following the internal links. Except internal links, Google can also find you through hyperlinks from other websites to your site. In other words, when Google finds a website or web page that contains a link to your site, it will follow the link to your site. That's one of the reasons you need link building, which can enhance your visibility and help Google find you easier.
