1. Crawl
Google crawl from 1 page to another using Googlebot. It starts from previous urls crawled, or augmented with Sitemap data
A sitemap is a list of pages of a web site accessible to crawlers or users. It can be either a document in any form used as a planning tool for Web design, or a Web page that lists the pages on a Web site, typically organized in hierarchical fashion.
2. Indexing
Compile the data (key content tags, atrributes, like title tags, ALT attributes). Google don't process rich media or dynamic files.
3. Algorithm
When search, pull all relevant results from the Index.
Rank the result based on 200+ factors, one of which is the PageRank for a given page.
PageRank is the measure of the importance of a page based on the incoming links from other pages. In simple terms, each link to a page on your site from another site adds to your site's PageRank.
