    Crawling is just to visit a site by search engines. But Indexing is to "add" or "include" the page is search engines.

    These two terms are interrelated. Search engines perform both these processes. Crawling is the method performed by the SE in requesting a URL. Indexing, meanwhile is the product of successful crawling.

    Crawling means searching for web pages.
    Indexing means adding those crawled pages into possible search results.
