An index is another name for the database used by a search engine. It contains information on all the websites the search engine was able to find. If a website is not in a search engine's index, users will not be able to find it using that search engine. Search engines regularly update their indexes.

Crawling means the visit of Google to track your web page. This process is done by Spider of Google crawler. Indexing means when crawling has been done putting the results on Google's index
