How Search Engines Work
What is SEO?
• Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process by which a website or more
specifically a web page is constructed or enhanced in such a way as to improve
its placement in the search engine results pages.
• Good SEO‘s will ensure that a page appears higher in the search engine
results for a range of relevant, specific and valuable search terms or
queries.
• The successful execution of a search engine optimization project requires
skills in the areas of analysis, research, planning, copy writing and
communication.
• For SEO, awareness in simple web technologies such as HTML, PHP, etc. is a
major factor.
History of
SEO

2. • The early days of search engine optimization go back to mid-1990s. The most
important aspect of a search engine algorithm appeared to be entirely ―on-
pageǁ based and was focused almost exclusively around meta tags and their
related text.
• During the late 1990s, ethical SEOs and spammers alike realized that search
engine results could be manipulated by the simple process of adjusting a
site‘s meta tags to match the desired keywords. Google‘s arrival in 1998 and
the introduction of its
―off-pageǁ, link based, approach signaled the beginning of the end for the
exclusively meta tag driven approach.
• Because of link spamming, Google introduced Domain Relevance and authority

Things to avoid in SEO?(Black Hat)
● Keyword Stuffing : Keyword stuffing is the technique of excessively
using lots of keywords with express intention of influencing the search
engines.
● Cloaking : Cloaking is the technique whereby the web site visible to a site
visitor is entirely different from that seen by a search engine spider.
● Doorway Sites : A doorway site is a site that acts as a referring page for another
site. The doorway page is highly optimized and contains hidden links and
keywords. The doorway site then climbs search engine rankings but redirects all
of its traffic to the target and perhaps poorly optimized site
● Link Spamming : In many respects, due to the increasing influence of links, it
is inevitable that link spamming would become an issue. Spamming of links
has been a growing problem as many people have realized the importance
that Google, in particular, places on links. As a significant issue it raised its
head in April 2005 when Google‘s new release appeared to ban one of the
leading SEO firms from its rankings.

3. ● Comment Spam:Comment spam is where a spammer visits a publicly
accessible site and deposits a comment with an anchor text link back to a
designated site.
Types of SEO Techniques
On Page SEO & Off Page
SEO
• On-page SEO is the practice of optimizing individual web pages in order to rank
higher and earn more relevant traffic in search engines. On-page refers to both
the content and HTML source code of a page that can be optimized, as opposed
to off-page SEO which refers to links and other external signals. It includes
providing good content, good keywords selection, putting keywords on correct
places, giving appropriate title to every page, etc.
On Page SEO Factors
• HTTP response code errors
• Site speed
• Internal links pointing to the page
• Correct rel=”canonical”Use
• Absence of Broken Links
• Perfect HTML Code
• Valid CSS & JS
OFF Page
SEO

4. • Off page SEO refers to techniques that can be used to improve the position of a web site
in the search engine results page (SERPs). Many people associate off-page SEO with
link building but it is not only that. It includes link building, increasing link popularity by
submitting open directories, search engines, link exchange, etc.

site

Introduction to SERP
Search Engines
• How does a Search Engine Work?
• Crawling- Process of fetching all the web pages linked to a website. This task is
performed by a software called a crawler or a spider (or Googlebot, in case of Google).
• Indexing- Process of creating index for all the fetched web pages and keeping them into
a giant database from where it can later be retrieved. Essentially, the process of
indexing is identifying the words and expressions that best describe the page and
assigning the page to particular keywords.
• Processing- When a search request comes, the search engine processes it, i.e., it
compares the search string in the search request with the indexed pages in the
database.
• Calculating Relevancy- It is likely that more than one page contains the search
string, so the search engine starts calculating the relevancy of each of the pages in
its index to the search string.
• Retrieving Results- The last step in search engine activities is retrieving the best matched
results. Basically, it is nothing more than simply displaying them in the browser.
Search Engine Ranking
• Search Engine Rank When you search any keyword using a search engine, it displays
thousands of results found in its database. A page ranking is measured by the position
of web pages

5. displayed in the search engine results. If a search engine is putting your web page on
the first position, then your web page rank will be number 1 and it will be assumed as
the page with the highest rank.
Major Search Engine
• Google : Started in 1998 as a university project by Stanford University students Sergey
Brin and Larry Page.
• Yahoo Search
• Bing : Bing was launched in May 2009 as a fundamental upgrade from Microsoft‘s
previous efforts into search, MSN Search.
• Baidu : In China, Baidu is the major player with more than three of every four

volumes for your needs. You can find out about search volumes by checking
with https://www.wordtracker.com/, https://searchvolume.io/ etc.
• Competitive Advantage : A place to look for keywords is where you enjoy some
competitive advantage. How are your products or services differentiated? What
are the real strengths of your business compared to your closest competitors?
• Competition : Try to find words or phrases that appear ignored or underutilized
by your competitors. An alternative but higher risk approach is to see what
keywords are used by competitor sites and then attempt to outmaneuver them
by better use of links, content and meta tags.
• Relevance : The keyword terms you select must be relevant, salient and part of
the vocabulary used by the audience you are seeking to attract. If the target
audience is a consumer one s/he is unlikely to use jargon. The opposite may be
true if you are seeking B2B prospects.

(allows a file in that specific
folder)
• Here user agent is the search engine crawlers and disallow lists files to be
excluded from indexing or that instructs a user agent to not to crawl a URL.
• You can use * to reference all crawlers or specify the name of crawler.
• User-agent: *
• User-agent:Googlebot

● XMLSitemap
• XML Sitemap is the file where you can list the web pages of your site to tell
google and other search engines about the organization of your site content.
• It helps the robots to intelligently crawl the website.

14. • Creating the sitemap is not too complicated. Basically, for each URL you list in
your sitemap, you can add additional information about images on that page.
Google gives us an example for the URLhttp://example.co.uk/sample.xml:
• Sitemap structure
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
<url>
<loc>http://www.example.com/</loc>
<lastmod>2005-01-01</lastmod>
<
changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority>
</url>
</urlset>
• <urlset> : Encapsulates the file and references the current protocol standard.
• <url> : Parent tag for each URL entry. The remaining tags are children of this tag.
• <loc> : URL of the page. This URLmust begin with the protocol (such as http) and end
with a trailing slash, if your web server requires it. This value must be less than 2,048
characters.
• <lastmod > optional The date of last modification of the file. This date should be in W3C
Datetime format. This format allows you to omit the time portion, if desired, and use
YYYY-MM-DD.
• <changefreq> : How frequently the page is likely to change. This value provides general
information to search engines and may not correlate exactly to how often they crawl the
page. Valid values are:
• always
• hourly
• daily
• weekly
• monthly
• yearly
• never
• <priority> : The priority of this URL relative to other URLs on your site. Valid values
range from 0.0 to 1.0. This value does not affect how your pages are compared to pages
on other sites—it only lets the search engines know which pages you deem most
important for the crawlers.
• The default priority of a page is 0.5.
• Please note that the priority you assign to a page is not likely to influence the position of
your URLs in a search engine's result pages. Search engines may use this information
when selecting between URLs on the same site, so you can use this tag to increase the
likelihood that your most important pages are present in a search index.

15. Static Dynamic
In static web pages, Pages will remain
same until someone changes it manually.
In dynamic web pages, Content of
pages are different for different
visitors.
Static Web Pages are simple in
terms of complexity.
Dynamic web pages are complicated.
In static web pages, Information are
change rarely.
In dynamic web page, Information are
change frequently.
Static Web Page takes less time for
loading than dynamic web page.
Dynamic web page takes more time for
loading.
In Static Web Pages, database is not used. In dynamic web pages, database is used.
Static web pages are written in
languages such as: HTML, JavaScript,
CSS, etc.
Dynamic web pages are written in
languages such as: CGI, AJAX, ASP,
ASP.NET, etc.
• Also, please note that assigning a high priority to all of the URLs on your site is not
likely to help you. Since the priority is relative, it is only used to select between URLs on
your site.

Some common Terminology of Web
• Domain Name : A domain name is your website name. A domain name is the
address where Internet users can access your website. A domain name is used
for finding and identifying computers on the Internet. Computers use IP
addresses, which are a series of number. However, it is difficult for humans to
remember strings of numbers. Because of this, domain names were developed
and used to identify entities on the Internet rather than using IP addresses.
• Web Server: A Web server is a computer system that hosts websites. It runs Web
server software, such as Apache or Microsoft IIS, which provides access to
hosted webpages over the Internet.
• FTP:The File Transfer Protocol is a standard network protocol used for the
transfer of computer files between a client and server on a computer network.
• Database : A database is a data structure that stores organized information.
Most databases contain multiple tables, which may each include several different
fields. For example, a company database may include tables for products,
employees, and financial records.

17. 6. On Page
● Canonical Tag
● Broken Links
● No Follow/ Do Follow
● Social sharing
● Canonical Tag

search engines and bots not to follow any links on the page, it lets you
easily instruct robots not to a crawl a specific link.
• Do follow links allow Google to follow them and reach our website, thus
giving us link juice and a backlink.
• Structure is,

result to link to the websites subpages.
Citation
● Citation is the way you tell your readers that certain material in your work came from
another source.
● Giving credit to the original author by citing sources is the only way to use other peoples
work without plagiarizing.
Schema Markup ( Structured Data)
● Schema Markup is a code that you can add to your website to improve the way search
engines read and represent your page in SERPs.
● Schema tells the search engines what your data means, not just what it says.

19. ● Adding schema markup to your website improves the way your page display in SERP’s

● Search results with rich snippets will have a better click through rate.
● JSON-LD(JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) supports all types of content
● Microdata support only HTML documents. It's a HTML5 specification
Example (Microdata)
<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Movie">
<h1>Avatar</h1>
<span>Director: James Cameron (born August 16, 1954)</span>
<span>Science fiction</span>
<a href="../movies/avatar-theatrical-trailer.html">Trailer</a>
</div>
● By adding itemscope, you are specifying that the HTML contained in
the <div>...</div> block is about a particular item
● But it's not all that helpful to specify that there is an item being discussed without
specifying what kind of an item it is. You can specify the type of item using
the itemtype attribute immediately after the itemscope
● This specifies that the item contained in the div is in fact a Movie, as defined in the
schema.org type hierarchy. Item types are provided as URLs, in this
case http://schema.org/Movie.
<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">
<span itemprop="name">Blend-O-Matic</span>
<span itemprop="price">$19.95</span>
<div itemprop="reviews" itemscope
itemtype="http://schema.org/AggregateRating">
<img src="four-stars.jpg" />
<meta itemprop="ratingValue" content="4" />
<meta itemprop="bestRating" content="5" />
Based on <span itemprop="ratingCount">25</span>
</div>
</div>
user ratings
Example (JSON-ld)
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"@context": "https://schema.org",

"url": "http://www.example.com",
"name": "Unlimited Ball Bearings Corp.",
"contactPoint": {
"@type": "ContactPoint",
"telephone": "+1-401-555-1212",
"contactType": "Customer service"
}
}
</script>
● @Context: When two people communicate with one another, the conversation takes place
in a shared environment, typically called "the context of the conversation". This shared
context allows the individuals to use shortcut terms, like the first name of a mutual friend,
to communicate more quickly but without losing accuracy. A context in JSON-LD works
in the same way. It allows two applications to use shortcut terms to communicate with
one another more efficiently, but without losing accuracy.
