These search engines have their web crawlers, spiders or web robots (web bots). Web spiders have their mathematical formula which they called algorithm. Search engine don’t have the same algorithm, their bots move in different ways to make their individual results. That’s the reason why when we search in Google, Yahoo and Bing don’t give the same results. Their web spiders classify and filter the results which they give to the searchers as an output.

When the spider has detected your website it study the information with its meta’s and scan the content. Eventually it will be indexed it in the search engine and crawl for other information like websites linking to you or your website linking to them, filtering those pages related to each other and then gives a proper ranking in the search engine. The spider will go back to your website to check any changes in your websites.
