Internet Marketing Terminology

Search Engines: The leading search engines, Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft, use crawlers to find pages for their algorithmic search results. Pages that are linked from other search engine indexed pages do not need to be submitted because they are found automatically.

Search Query: A search term refers to the word or phrase the user types in a search engine to search for. The search engine returns results that are matches from its database. The action of searching is called querying the database. A single search of a search query is called a search query.

Search Engine Results Page, or SERP: is the listing of web pages returned by a search engine in response to a keyword query. The results normally include a list of web pages with titles, a link to the page, and a short description showing where the keywords have matched content within the page. A SERP may refer to a single page of links returned, or to the set of all links returned for a search query.

Search Algorithm: In the context of search engines, it is the mathematical programming system used to determine which web pages are displayed in search results. There are many criteria that are used in the algorithm process such as: title meta description, meta keywords, image alt tags, body text, inbound link text, domain name, heading tags, filename phrases in bold or italics, what other sites are linking to that page, and the importance of linking sites rated by the search engine. Focusing specific key phrases within the criteria rated by the search engine will increase the likelihood of ranking well for the search engine's algorithm which is made up of many individual criteria set by a specific search engine used to rank individual pages of a web site.
