The surface web (also called the visible web, indexed web, or indexable web) is the portion of the World Wide Web that is readily available to the general public and searchable with standard web search engines. OverviewIt is the highest layer of the World Wide Web, the other two being the deep web, the area not accessible via standard search engines, and the Dark web, the area with your IP address, and therefore your identity, hidden.

Dark webDark webThe dark web is the World Wide Web content that exists on darknets (overlay networks) that use the Internet, but require specific software, configurations, or authorization to access. Through the dark web, private computer networks can communicate and conduct business anonymously without divulging identifying information, such as a user's location.Deep webThe deep web, also known as the invisible web or the hidden web, is the parts of the World Wide Web whose contents are not indexed by standard web search-engine programs. This is in contrast to the surface web, which is accessible to anyone using the Internet. Computer scientist Michael K. Bergman is credited with inventing the term in 2001 as a search-indexing term.Search engineSearch engineThe term search engine refers to a search application that provides links to web pages and other relevant information on the Web (or the Internet in general) in response to a user's query. Users submit their queries through a web browser or a mobile app, and the results page generally displays a collection of hyperlinks together with brief descriptions and relevant images.IP addressAn Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label, such as 192.168.1.1 or 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334, that is assigned to a device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. IP addresses serve two main functions: network interface identification, and location addressing. Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) was the first standalone specification for the IP address, and has been in use since 1983.World Wide WebWorld Wide WebThe World Wide Web (also known as WWW, W3, or simply the Web) is a global interconnected information system that enables content sharing over the Internet. It facilitates access to documents and other web resources according to specific rules of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The Web was invented by English computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee while at CERN in 1989 and opened to the public in 1993. It was conceived as a "universal linked information system".Surface WebSurface WebRelated word or term.
