To begin this article it is important to start explaining the different aspects of the web, we will start with the surface; The parts with which you are most familiar. The web surface is anything that can be indexed by a typical search engine like Google, Bing or Yahoo. Google has a great interactive story explaining how they index and search the web in depth.
Search engines depend on pages that contain links to find and identify the content. You will find that when clicking on links, it’s a great way to find new content on the web that most people in general care about (blogs, news, etc.). But this link navigation technique also loses a lot of content. Let's go a little deeper to know exactly what kind of content is lost.
Continuing with our definitions, we have learned that Surface Web is something that a search engine can access and Deep Web is something that a search engine can’t access. Dark Web is then classified as a small portion of the Deep Web that has been intentionally hidden and inaccessible through standard web browsers.
The key to keep in mind is that the Dark Web is a small part of the Deep Web. Some media are mistakenly defining both and we will do our best to explain the differences.
The Deep Web encompasses everything that, being online, is not public, but hidden and private. There can be, therefore, from normal pages protected by paywall to others with a disallow in the file robots.txt or dynamic pages generated when consulting a database.
Put simply, Deep Web is a compilation of all restricted or non-indexed content that is outside conventional or commercial search engines. Let's go to the Dark Web, which must be encompassed within it.
The DarkWeb or Dark Web is the public content of the World Wide Web that exists in darknets, networks superposed to the public Internet and that require specific software, configurations or authorization to accede. It is part of the Deep Web or part of the Web not indexed by search engines, but it is not an analogous term but a small portion of it. Usually based on the trust of the anonymity system that gives you access, and like any pseudo-anonymous platform, it brings out the best and the worst of people.
Access to these types of networks is illegal in many countries and, of course, their use even more. It is not advisable or curious as we can only find unpleasant things and we could get into a dangerous network or even monitored by the authorities.
