Difference between cache and index

What is difference between cache and index

 

I think Cached is the already indexed pages stored in SE server.

Any other idea pls.

 

cached is for the user

 

would you explain you question ?

any way,

cached is saved page ( on server or on visitor's computer )

 

If I see with this instruction in google then my all pages shown
site:domainname.com
but when I see with this instruction in google then my page is not showing
cache:domainname.com

 

difference between cache and index.cache mean google know about you are in eye of google.
index mean related page index .

 

In my opinion, Google takes a picture of each page, examines and caches (stores) that version as a back-up in the Database. The cached version is what Google makes use of to judge if a page is a good match for a searched query. Google index refers to getting website listed in the google's database index for SERPs.

 

cache is depend on index. first crawler index the urls in their database, then cache the content of the page. whenever you change any content on the page, crawler again cache the page because page has been already indexed.

 

i think so too.

 

Indexing means to give an ID to each word/Keyword in your page, search engines stores these indexes (IDs) in a server(s), while the results will come from another server.
Caching has nothing to do with results, it's just a service for users to show how the search engines saw that page

 

John2010 has provided actual meaning of Cache and indexing.

 

Indexing is a logarithm that saves your pages in an index "Your text only" "Not human friendly" it's just compressed somehow to save Google time and money and usually run 1000 machines for only 1 search query so it will take only seconds.
Cache is a cached copy of page content on an archive that also have the page html elements.

 

I want to know the main difference between cache and index. I have a website which is cached by Google but it is not indexed.

 

hey dude,


Cache means A website which is stored in SE server

Index means A website index with current position

 

cached is the indication of when your webpages got indexed.

 

In eye of google means?
can you elaborate it?

 

he cached version is what Google makes use of to judge if a page is a good match for a searched query. Google index refers to getting website listed in the google's database index for SERPs.difference between cache and index.cache mean google know about you are in eye of google.

Simply you can say that cache is a type of command which tells you that your page is indexed in Google or not.

 

In simple terms, index is the first time crawler comes to your site and it is called your site or webpage has been indexed by Google.
A Cache gives you the details such as time, date and what things the crawler has seen on your website. This happens every time a crawler comes to the site or page.

 

This is very difficult question many people are confused abut it. Indexing is a logarithm that saves website pages in an index. Cache is a cached copy of page content on an archive that also have the page html elements.
