Caching and Indexing

[Pillars]

What is the differences between cache and index?

 

[IvanNorwood]

An “indexed” page is a page that has been crawled by a search engine spider and filed away in that search engine’s index for later use (note the italics), and a “cached” page is one that might actually show up in search results.

Indexing- Google visited your website and has added you to its database. Caching- Google toook a snapshot of your website when it last visited and stored the data in case your website went down or if there are some any other issues.

Indexing: Search engine has visited and crawled your website.
Caching: Search engine has crawled and added to its database and its a snapshot of date and time of crawler's visit on your website.

Caching and indexing both are the different ways such as
caching- search engine will crawl and add to its database and its snapshot of its date and time
indexing- search engine is visited and crawl the website and put it on the search results.

Crawling is also known as spider or Google bot. It visits on the web pages and check that everything is ok in the site if it finds duplicity it removes that page or site. The search engine crawler visits each web page and identifies all the hyperlinks on the page, adding them to the list of places to crawl.
Indexing process is a simple file management technique that organizes data into special file folders, similar to a file label in a file cabinet. Internet search engines use special indexing techniques that store Meta data about web sites and content.

Caching is the process or reading through your webpage source by search engine spiders. They provide a cache certificate after a successful crawl. Indexing is updating the cached webpages in search engine database. Indexed webpages are now ready for search engine rankings.

Crawling is something like Search engine bots visited your site and indexing is saving your information in database and caching is the more detail information of indexing like when visited and time , now you can know which goes first.

Indexing- Indexing takes place after a crawled URIs are processed. Note that there may be several URIs that are crawled but there could be fewer of them whose content will be processed through indexing.

Caching - Caching is where copies of web pages stored locally on an Internet user's hard drive or within a search engine's database.

Crawling means the visit of Google to track your web page. This process is done by Spider of Google crawler. Indexing means when crawling has been done putting the results on Google’s index .

Caching,as it pertains to hosting a website,is the temporary storage of content. This content could be images,files,bits of PHP scripts that are pre compiled,HTML pages,results of database queries,and other web objects.

Indexing- Indexing is the process of adding webpages into google search. In order for your site's content to be included in the results of your custom search engine,they need to be included in the Google index. The google index lists all the webpages that google knows about. when google visits your site, it detects new and updated pages and updates the google index.
