Bots, spiders or web crawlers are heavily used by search engines to figure out how high to display websites in  search results . For instance, seeing how many high quality websites are linking to your website is one of the many important ranking factors bots can track. Bots discover new web pages to visit or “crawl” by  following links . Once a new webpage is discovered, details about the content and its relationship to other content is recorded.
