How long does it take before a webpage is saved to Google Cache?

Question

I heard how many people asked how long the information was stored in the Google cache. It doesn't matter to me (at least until someone slanders my name).

Answer 1

There is probably not a good answer, or at least there is probably a good answer you will get outside of Googleplex.

In order for Google to crawl and cache your page, usually someone has to link to you, or you must ask to crawl your site.

You can influence how often he visits your site by setting a sitemap , but as far as I know, Google makes no guarantees that he will crawl your site according to any specific schedule.

Answer 2

It depends. Google often visits frequently changing pages than static sites. And if Google does not know that your site exists, how can it then visit (and cache) your site?

If your site is hosted on a new and unknown website, you must tell google to visit you. Or you can remove many links to your site all over the Internet.

If you created a new article on your current cached site, google will find out in a day or two. Or maybe a lot faster. (But you need a link pointing to this new article.) As I said: it all depends;)

Tip. You probably have access to the site’s log, which tells how often googlebot browses your site!

Answer 3

Google cache exists until Google removes it due to 404 errors, redirection of 302 addresses or specific expiration headers (noindex, nosnippet, noarchive) on the next crawl. You can also remove links from Google manually.

Answer 4

Ok, the page is stored in Google cache forever :-)

And I think it is stored in the Google cache when it was crawled.

Answer 5

The best thing you can probably do on your side is to set the appropriate HTTP cache headers and hope that Google pays attention to them.
