What is a Search engine spider or search engine robot?
A “software spider” is an unmanned program operated by a search engine that surfs the Web just like you would. As it visits each Web site, it records (saves to its hard drive) all the words on each site and notes each link to other sites. It then “clicks” on a link, and off it goes to read, index and store another Web site.
The software spider often reads and then indexes the entire text of each Web site it visits into the main database of the search engine it is working for. Recently many engines such as AltaVista have begun indexing only up to a certain number of pages of a site, often about 400, and then stopping. Apparently, this is because the Web has become so large that it’s unfeasible to index everything.

If you are not acquiring those customers as a result of a relevant query, then they will be disappointed. They may be disappointed with the search result, but more likely, they will be disappointed with your web site.
In the online world that’s your first impression. We all know how important a first impression is. You can never get a bad one back, and a good one will carry you a long way. You have to make sure that the search engines are sending you visitors that are looking for your products or services. If your web site matches their interests, they will remember it, and come back, even if they do not make a purchase on that visit. If they find it irrelevant, they may have subconsciously formed a negative opinion of your online business, through no fault of your own.
