Basically, Search Engine is a website that stores all information that available on internet. Generally, they only record the slightly information, the site address, site title, article title, and a few dominant words in the site. Based on this, they segmenting the data. How it works, is to copy and paste all site page, and process it on their algorithm system.


If a visitor access the internet, and enter a few words that they looking for on the search engines, the search engine will display all information and data deemed relevant to the searchable words. Search Engine will sorted them according to the quality of data, based on their algorithm calculation. Thus, the data will be sorted to show, from the most relevant to the less relevant.

Based on this algoritm system of search engine, then many webmaster and blogger tried to find some technique to make their sites and blogs to appear on the first page of search engine results page (SERP). How ? Its to optimize all information that considered as most likely by the search engine crawl system. This is then called as SEO (Search Engine Optimization) technique.
