It also includes content within mainstream websites that is simply not set up to be accessed through a search engine. To exemplify this a bit further, the deep web can actually include things like academic databases, which can be accessed through a normal browser but are not accessible to search engines. The Dark Web on the other hand merely represents a smaller portion of the deep web that has been intentionally hidden and is inaccessible through standard web browsers. In simple terms, the Surface Web is anything that a search engine can find by crawling links and identifying content online, while the Deep Web is anything that a search engine can’t find. We have revised it and bumped it as part of our #ThrowbackThursday initiative. Note: This feature was originally published on. Let’s start by clearing up some of the confusion among the different terms that tend to be thrown around while discussing the Internet’s underground. The deep web is actually several times bigger than the indexed web, and it encompasses a lot more than the illegal or otherwise questionable activities that it is often associated with – though there’s certainly a lot of that going on, too. But what is exactly the deep web? Well it’s not actually a ‘place’ but rather anywhere other than the visible web that is crawled, indexed and accessed through links fetched by search engines like Google.
