A web spider is a piece of software that scans your web pages and collects data for indexing. A program that automatically follows all of the links on each web page is called crawler.
Many sites, in particular search engines, use spidering as a means of providing up-to-date data. Web crawlers are mainly used to create a copy of all the visited pages for later processing by a search engine that will index the downloaded pages to provide fast searches.
Spiders,Crawlers, or google Bots are just programs the search engines use to index the content found on the World Wide Web.
I think Spider program to crawl website content and Crawler is help to indexing website urls.
Spiders and crawlers both are same !
Crawling- Google sends its spiders to your website..
Spider- Google visited your website and has added you to its database..
I used to confuse the two. But now I know the difference.
Spiders browse and download webpages. Crawlers index your webpages to the appropriate SERP categories.
Both crawls but i find some interesting difference here.
