The Difference between Crawling, Indexing and Caching?

[Hugo E.]

I would like to know what is the difference between Crawling, Indexing and Caching?

what is the most important part for SEO when search engines crawl, index or caching a webpage?

 

[Mark007]

When a search engine spider crawls your website a certificate is provided to the webpage which is known as cache copy. Caching refers to the same as crawling. Indexing happens once the webpage has been cached or crawled by search engine crawlers.

Here is Your Answers:

Crawling - Google sends its spiders to your website..
Indexing - Google visited your website and has added you to its database..
Caching - Google took 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.

That's it.

when a bot is coming to your website called Crawling
when the bot read the content of it, its called Indexing
when the bot saves the content of your website its called Caching

These three goes step by step. First google crawl or find the webpage by using the spiders After crawling continue with process of caching to store the webspages in database. At last according to the collected information it index the webpages in the search engine result page.
