▶️ Step 2 - Indexing
Once a web page is crawled, the search engine parses the page and
indexes the content found on the page in a database. The content is
analyzed and categorized. For example, keywords, site quality,
content freshness, and many other factors are assessed to
understand what the page is about.
▶️ Step 3 - Ranking
Search engines use complex algorithms to determine the order of
search results. These algorithms consider various factors, including
keywords, pages' relevance, content quality, user engagement, page
load speed, and many others. Some search engines also personalize
results based on the user's past search history, location, device, and
other personal factors.

When a user performs a search, the search engine sifts through its
index to provide the most relevant results.
