What is Indexing?

[worldescape]

An index is a method of sorting data by creating keywords or a listing of the data. When referring to the Internet or web pages, an index is a file named as index.htm, index.html, index.asp, or index.php. The index file is the first file loaded when accessing a directory on a website.

Indexing is updating the cached webpages in search engine database. Indexed webpages are now ready for search engine rankings.
