What's Google Cache

Google Cache refers to the stored copies of web pages that Google has crawled and indexed. When Google's web crawlers visit a website, they take snapshots of the pages they encounter and store these snapshots in their database. A Google cached page is a raw HTML backup of the content on a page taken during one of Google’s crawls. Google Cache as a whole comprises these backed-up pages. This cached version allows users to access a copy of a webpage even if the original site is temporarily unavailable or has been updated.

It's important to note that cached pages may not always reflect the most recent changes on a website, as Google's crawlers don't visit every page constantly. Additionally, websites can use robots.txt files to instruct search engines not to cache certain pages.

How to Use Google Cache

In the past, you could check Google Cache directly on Google's search results page, but now Google has removed that feature. However, you can still view the cached pages using GoogleCacheViewer. To view a cached page, simply enter the URL in the input box, submit, and you'll be able to see the cached version.

Google Cached Pages

Google cached pages contains a snapshot or stored copy of a website that can be accessed by servers and clients. This copy is created when Google's crawler analyzes a web page for indexing. Google's web crawlers continuously search for new web content in order to index it and use it for relevant search queries. Google regularly takes such snapshots of web pages.

However, not all web pages have a corresponding cached copy. This depends on whether Google decides to create a cached page for that particular URL. Therefore, if you visit a Google Cache page through our website and see a 404 error, it means that a cached version for that specific Google Cache page does not exist.
