  Web indexing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Web indexing (or "Internet indexing") includes back-of-book-style indexes to individual websites or an Intranet, and the creation of keyword metadata to provide a more useful vocabulary for Internet or onsite search engines.
Back-of-the-book-style web indexes may be called "web site A-Z indexes." The implication with "A-Z" is that there is an alphabetical browse view or interface.
Metadata web indexing involves assigning keywords or phrases to web pages or web sites within a meta-tag field, so that the web page or web site can be retrieved with a search engine that is customized to search the keywords field.

 Web Indexing Chat (Transcript)
Whether this is an index of a website, of several websites, or of something that isn't on the Web at all (like a book) doesn't matter; the bottom line is that the index is alphabetized, indented (as best as possible), and uses locators.
I prefer to use the "indexing" as some combination of two different existing concepts: the index you see in books, and the term "indexing" when used for databases.
Indexing is about identifying how "wanted" concepts are likely to be found by those who want them.

 Marisol Productions, Indexing, Writing, Web Page Design: Web Site Indexing
Web site indexing involves two basic skills: indexing and Web site design, and an intangible one: the willingness and resourcefulness to invent new ways to present information to people.
Web site indexes can be similar to book indexes or to tables of contents, they may incorporate features of search engines, or they can be whole new approaches to that basic task of an index: connecting people with the information they are seeking, and, perhaps, with information they don't yet know is there.
Web site design books are out of date almost as soon as they are published, so I highly recommend browsing in your local bookstore or your favorite cyberspace bookstore for current and additional selections.

 Martin Tulic, Book indexing - About indexing - Software for indexing
The index itself is generated by issuing a command that causes the program to sort the headings and generate the listing.
In indexing, upper case and lower case letters are considered to have equal value during alphabetization, meaning that sorting should not be case sensitive, as it is in ASCII sorting.
Some facilitate tasks that may arise when indexing any type of work; some facilitate tasks that are unique to a specific type of indexing, such as legal indexing; most work in conjunction with one or more standalone indexing programs.

 Progressive indexing: Effect on benefits - Apr. 29, 2005
In addition to a decline in promised dollars, under progressive indexing the benefits of higher and medium earners will replace less and less of their pre-retirement income for each successive group of retirees.
For example, under a progressive price indexing model, a maximum earner who is 25 today and will retire in 2045 would receive benefits that replace 17 percent of his pre-retirement income.
Under his plan, which calls for progressive indexing to be implemented in 2012, he defines low-income workers as anyone making less than $25,000 in 2012; a middle-income worker as someone who makes more than $25,000 but less than $113,000; and a maximum-earner as someone who makes more than $113,000.

 Sherline Indexing Attachment Instructions
The indexing head utilizes a spindle with a #1 Morse taper and a 3/4"-16 male thread identical to the spindles on the Sherline lathe and milling machines.
The indexing attachment can be attached directly to the bed of the Sherline milling machine (See Figure 4), or the Indexing Head can be used by itself in a horizontal position similar to a rotary table (See Figure 2).
The indexing attachment is not recommended for use on the Sherline lathe with the vertical milling column; however, with the use of shims to elevate the unit high enough to clear the crosslide handwheel, it can be done.

 What Exactly Is "Online Indexing"?
The major disadvantage to embedded indexing is that it is relatively complicated and/or time-consuming to edit the index tags.
Although some people might disagree with me, indexing a Web document itself (that is, an HTML document, as opposed to a printable-on-paper document that will later be converted for Web publication) is also embedded indexing.
In fact, using index generation software is considered downright bad practice for almost all projects, and many indexers shun the thought of computer-generated indexes to begin with.

But now the focus is shifting to the deep Web (AKA the invisible Web), which consists of a vast depository of underlying content in dynamic databases -- databases that remained untapped due to the limitations of Web crawling technology.
Quantitatively, the deep Web has been estimated to be about 500 times larger than the surface Web, but this figure may be misleading.
Inktomi indexes dynamic content, but only goes a few pages deep within each site, though a paid partnership program with Inktomi allows more pages to be indexed.

 The Authors Catalogue Their Documents for a Light Web Indexing
It is, therefore, necessary to retrieve the entire document to be indexed, and as the agents must complete the cataloguing in a short time, they absorb a great quantity of network resources for processing, increasing the network workload to critical levels.
Indexing based on META tag interpretation moves few data, and these can be attached to those normally transmitted in reply to a HEAD HTTP-request (which refers to the properties of a file and not to its contents).
Besides enhancing the speed and correctness of the indexing procedures because they are based on standards, we believe that the implementation of the methodology presented here would simplify the code used by indexing agents.

In the resource discovery area, there is also growing awareness among the internet user community of the limitations of Web indexing services such as AltaVista, which were greeted enthusiastically when they first appeared (especially as a contrast to the complete absence of indexing which existed previously).
It is possible that the community represented at this conference, as it is concerned with higher quality networked information and retrieval, should develop its own Web indexing system, thereby providing an incentive for information providers to carry some metadata in their objects.
Finally, in the context of Web indexing, there are currently two Webs in existence: visible pages that can be indexed; and an entire "subterranean Web" of databases etc., which needs to integrate metadata with static page indexing to describe these resources.
