Most commonly larger [[search engine optimization]] (SEO) providers depend on regularly scraping keywords from search engines, especially Google, [[Sogou]] to monitor the competitive position of their customers' websites for relevant keywords or their [[search engine indexing|indexing]] status.
Search engines like Google have implemented various forms of human detection to block any sort of automated access to their service,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66357?hl=en|title=Automated queries – Search Console Help|website=support.google.com|language=en|accessdate=2017-04-02}}</ref> in the intent of driving the users of scrapers towards buying their official [[API]]s instead.
The process of entering a website and extracting data in an automated fashion is also often called "[[Web crawler|crawling]]". Search engine’s like Google, Bing, Yahoo or [[Sogou]] get almost all their data from automated crawling bots.

Search engines are an integral part of the modern online ecosystem. They provide a way for people to find information, products, and services online quickly and easily. In fact, more than 90% of online experiences begin with a search engine, and the top search results receive the majority of clicks. This is why SEO is critical for businesses and organizations that want to succeed in the digital world.
SEO is essential because it enables websites to rank higher in search results pages, making it easier for people to find them. A higher ranking in search results can increase a website's visibility, traffic, and ultimately, revenue. SEO can also help businesses and organizations establish their authority, credibility, and reputation in their respective industries.<ref>{{Cite web |title=What is SEO and how it works |url=https://www.viralseotools.com/blog/what-is-seo-and-how-it-works |access-date=2023-03-10 |website=ViralSEOTools.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=SEO Tools |first=Small |date=2023-02
