Google Cache Date Reverted - Anyone Seen This Before?
-
Yesterday I was checking the cache date of page of a client. Today the snapshot date has been reversed/reverted.
Yesterday it displayed "It is a snapshot of the page as it appeared on 19 Apr 2013" whereas today it reads "It is a snapshot of the page as it appeared on 4 Apr 2013".
Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Phil
I don't know that I've seen this exact issue before, but I've seen similar situations recently as well. I almost wonder if this could have to do with what data center you happen to be hitting, or if perhaps just in their database for some reason they push back to a prior index. Or you could be seeing part of test in one of those instances.
You could try asking others to check the cache from different places geographically. Have you also tried different browsers? I know some of that could be a stretch, but testing all variables can't hurt.
End of the day, I don't think this is a huge issue if Googlebot crawls the site at a healthy rate. So I'd run through webmaster tools etc and make sure crawl depth is where it should be.

I got exactly the same today!
It has been reverted for almost 3 weeks.
The weird thing is.. There are url's in the index that have a 301 to a new url but they still keep the old url in the index.
Ever seen that before as well?

Google Cache can't keep up with my 403s
Hi Mozzers, I hope everyone is well. I'm having a problem with my website and 403 errors shown in Google Webmaster Tools. The problem comes because we "unpublish" one of the thousands of listings on the site every few days - this then creates a link that gives a 403. At the same time we also run some code that takes away any links to these pages. So far so good. Unfortunately Google doesn't notice that we have removed these internal links and so tries to access these pages again. This results in a 403. These errors show up in Google Webmaster Tools and when I click on "Linked From" I can verify that that there are no links to the 403 page - it's just Google's Cache being slow. My question is a) How much is this hurting me? b) Can I fix it? All suggestions welcome and thanks for any answers!

Https Cached Site
Hi there, I recently switch my site to a new ecommerce platform which hosts the SSL certificate on their end so my site no longer has the HTTPS status unless a user is going through the checkout. Google has cached the HTTPS version of the site so in search it comes up sometimes which leads to a nasty warning that the site may not be what they are looking for. Is there a way to tell google NOT to look at the https version of the site anymore? Thanks! Bianca

Google +1 not recognizing rel-canonical

http://nadelectronics.com/products/made-for-ipod/VISO-1-iPod-Music-System My question is... why can't google + (or facebook and twitter for that matter) consolidate all these pages +1. So if the first two had 5 +1 and the rel-canonical page had 5 +1's. It would be nice for all pages to display 15 +1's not 5 on each. It's my understanding that Google +1 will gives the juice to the correct page. So why not display all the +1's at the same time. Hope that makes sense.0 -

Where is Google pulling the date stamp information from?
I found date stamps in front of Google's SERP snippets always very helpful, but where exactly is Google pulling this information from? Some of my sites show dates from past year in the snippets although all of them have a current date stamp on the front page. Would love to make sure that all my sites have show latest date in the snippets.
