The Deep Web (also called the Deepnet, the Invisible Web, the Undernet or the hidden Web) is World Wide Web content that is not part of the Surface Web, which is indexed by standard search engines.
It should not be confused with the dark Internet, the computers that can no longer be reached via Internet, or with the distributed filesharing network Darknet, which could be classified as a smaller part of the Deep Web.
Mike Bergman, founder of BrightPlanet, credited with coining the phrase,[1]
has said that searching on the Internet today can be compared to
dragging a net across the surface of the ocean: a great deal may be
caught in the net, but there is a wealth of information that is deep and
therefore missed.[2]
Most of the Web's information is buried far down on dynamically
generated sites, and standard search engines do not find it. Traditional
search engines cannot "see" or retrieve content in the deep Web—those
pages do not exist until they are created dynamically as the result of a
specific search. The deep Web is several orders of magnitude larger than the surface Web.
