Google crawls websites regularly using bots to update its search index and refresh search results. While it does not provide a set schedule, Google typically updates its index every 3-4 months, resulting in 4-5 updates per year. The timing of updates is determined algorithmically based on factors like links, page rank, and technical constraints. Websites can request re-crawling by Google if changes have been made.
