Thanks in advance for help with this.

Consider a URL with a directory like this:

http://www.a_website.com/a_directory

Without knowing that a directory exists with the name a_directory, or 
the names of files, html pages, whatever within a_directory, is it 
possible for anyone to actually see these files, html pages, whatever or 
to know that they exist?

I suppose that this is the same as asking "how does Google know that a 
page exists (especially without any "keywords" in the page)?

Thanks!
