Spiders are also called as 'robot' or 'crawler' that crawl the web and index the web pages they encounter in search engine page results(SERP).

Spider,Crawler & Robot are same or you can say are one. It's a program used by search engine to search billions of websites and their webpages and other important data that helps to decide ranking in SERP.

All the Spider, crawler and robots are same. Every search engine has an separate Robots for crawling and indexing purpose.

Robots are programs that follow links on Web sites, gathering data for search engine indexes. They are considered robots rather than programs because they are somewhat independent: no programmer has told them what pages to find. Other names for these programs are spider or crawler (because they follow links on the Web), worm, wanderer , gatherer

Spider- A spider is a program run by a search engine to build a summary of a website’s content (content index). Spiders create a text-based summary of content and an address (URL) for each webpage.
Robot - Robot is a text file used for access permission to spider and crawler.
Crawler- Crawling takes place when there is a successful fetching of unique URIs which can be traced from valid links from other web pages.

- Spider - a browser like program that downloads web pages.
- Crawler – a program that automatically follows all of the links on each web page.
- Robots - An automated computer program that visit websites & perform predefined task. They are guided by search engine algorithms & are able to perform different tasks instead of just one crawling task. They can combine the tasks of crawler & spider together and help in indexing and ranking of websites on any particular search engine.
