Google takes a snapshot of each page it examines or crawls and caches that version as a back-up. Google search results include a Cached link, which will take you to Google cached version of that web page. Accessing cached version of web page comes handy if it’s blocked in your work place as you are behind a proxy or website is down or even if owner has moved the page.
You can even access the cached version from a site that otherwise require registration or a subscription.
If you know the particular web page link and want to access the cached version of Google, you can take the help of the Google’s cache: search operator.
Example, [cache:www.sparkmylife.com.com] will show Google’s cached version of SparkMyLife.
The header at the top of cached page indicates when the webpage was cached and what you see isn’t necessarily the most recent version of the page. The current page could have changed in the meantime.
On the cached version of a page, Google will highlight terms in your query that appear after the cache: search operator.
Often, pages load much faster from Google cache than the original web server as Google Server are generally much faster and it’s easier to spot your keywords as they are highlighted by Google.
