Cache is not a Google SEO tool in the traditional sense; rather it is a somewhat hidden additional feature of Google search. Google Cache gives you the option of seeing a website in a text-only version. When all the images, animations, and designs have been removed, the remaining version is what’s left over for Google Crawler to read. These features helps the user better understand how Google interprets the navigation, the formatting, and the images on a page. This also means you can determine whether individual areas are not being properly detected, or not being detected at all (because of using Flash or Java Script, for example).
How to use the Cache feature:
- Search for your own website using Google.
- In the organic search results you will find a small green arrow right after the URL.
- Click on the arrow and select the “cached’’ option.
- On the overview page click on the “text-only version’’ and change to a pure text view.
