Webcache.Googleusercontent.Com
I was reading Peter young’s blog post earlier about google getting its own geo targeting wrong and returning what looked like a polish site link in a UK result.
Earlier this morning i noticed google using a different URL when you view a cached page. Webcache.Googleusercontent.Com. After reading around the subject a little i saw that its been around since about May this year. It doesn’t seem to be anything more than a text representation of the IP address Google uses when you click the cache button on a search result.
While i was having a look round i noticed something else you wouldn’t expect to see on Google. Google has indexed over 60k queries for this domain.
Most of them seem to have been blocked as the site does have the standard 1 mile long Google robots.txt file, however there are still some results that have been properly cached.
Im sure on the grand scale of things its not going to harm them. It is another example of Google not being perfect
