The term Deep Web (also called the Invisible Web and the Dark Web) refers to the hidden web content not indexed by standard search engines. Some estimates are that the Deep Web is 500 times larger than the surface Web (the visible Web). Think of the surface web as the surface of the ocean-miles and miles of surface out there, as far as the eye can see. But when you cast a net, it goes below the surface and captures things unseen to the eye. dark web links
Why is the Deep Web invisible? Because its hard-to-find web sites and search engines:
May have inadequate links to their content
Require users to register
Have spotty indexes to their content.
