    Cache is a saved copy or the blue print of Google bot that tells the last crawling time, date and page.

    Indexing is the process of saving your website page with the help of crawler.

    Cache means - The Google “cache” command will help you find the cached copy – the way the Web page looked when Google’s spiders indexed it - of any Web page.

    Index means pages added on Google database.

    When seo crawler come to find any update in your website, that procedure is known as a Cache. When Seo crawler finally get the updates and stores it in our database, is called Index.

    Cache generally used to watch the date and time for the last visit on that particular site by the crawler of search engines, in cache you can reach the updated as well as the older data content of the site, where as indexing means saving your data in database of search engine and displaying accordingly in the search results.

    According to me Cache is a process when search engine bot or crawler come to our page or found any update on website,
    And Indexing is a process after reading the updated element it stores those new elements in database of Search Engine.

    whenever search engine crawlers comes to your site and take snapshot of your webpage its called Cache. After cache search engine save these changes in their date base that called indexing.

    Hi Everybody

    Caching (Cache) happens when Google crawls a specific web page and take the snapshot of that particular page. And after it crawls to that specific web page, it will update that page details to it's database and that process is called indexing.

    Thanks and Regards

    Index is a statistical indicator providing a representation of the value of the securities which constitute it.

    A cache is a type of dynamic and high speed memory that is used to supplement the function of the central processing units

    Index means your website/page has been added into the Google's database (so, that google will check your website/page regularly to show the updated results in the search engine).

    Cache is nothing but a copy of the website/page which is captured during the Search engine crawl.

    There are enough answers in this thread for defining the difference b/w cache and index. So let me tell you how to check the date.

    You can check the cache date by Querying - cache:yourdomain.com

    You can check the indexing date by Querying - site:yourdomain.com (there will the last crawl date along with the results)

    This is only for Google, I don't know about other SEs

    Cache : When search engine bot or crawler come to your webpage or set up any update on your website, this method is called cache. Caching happens when Google(search engine) crawls a particular web page and get the snapshot of that exacting page.
    Indexing : After reading the updated element it stores those new elements in Search Engine's database. This process is called indexing.
