rawling is a process which is done by search engine bots to discover publicly available web pages. If anyone creates a new page on a website and link to it from an existing page and updates a site map file, this will be a signal to search engine bots that they should come and visit the web page to find new content.

While Indexing means when search engines bots crawl the web pages and save a copy of all information on index servers and search engines show the relevant results on search engines when a user performs a search query.

Crawling or spidering is a term used when Google, or another search engine, sends its bot to a web page or web post and “reads” the page. Don’t let this be confused with having that page being indexed. Crawling is the first part of having a search engine recognize your page and show it in search results.

It is not always necessary that the bots will index every crawl info on search engines.Some times they ignore it if they feel content is not worth enough.

Crawling and indexing are two such terms.
Crawling:
When Google visits your website for tracking purposes. This process is done by Google’s Spider crawler.
Indexing:
After crawling has been done, the results get put onto Google’s index (i.e. web search).

There are many terms that are thrown around all the time in the SEO world, many that seem to be synonymous. One perfect example of terms that are incorrectly used synonymously is Crawling and Indexing. Whether the writer understands the difference or not, in many SEO articles it leads the reader to believe the two words mean the same thing.
