Web crawlers are mainly used to create a copy of all the visited pages for later processing by a search engine, that will index the downloaded pages to provide fast searches. Crawlers can also be used for automating maintenance tasks on a web site, such as checking links or validating HTML code.
The role of crawler is to crawl or explore you website in order to index the changes you have made in your website or blog.
Different search engines have different crawlers like Google Bot for Google, Yahoo Slurp for Yahoo and Bingbot for Bing.
