2 cached versions - same page???

Just wondering if anyone has come across Google having 2 cached versions of the same page?

Sitemas has been telling me for months that the last time it accessed a homepage was July 18. But they have two cached versions of the page:

Coming from sitemaps cache query

http://72.14.221.104/search?q=cache...e/+site:www.dirtbusters.ie&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1

and straight from Google

http://72.14.221.104/search?q=cache:www.dirtbusters.ie&hl=en

 

'http://www.blah.com' and 'http://blah.com' are 2 different urls and are treated as 2 different pages. You probably have links to both versions, but Google have only updated their records for one of them.

I believe that you should 301 redirect one to the other so that search engines see them as the same page.

 

Both links are to the www cached version but will set up a 301 and see if it clears this out.

 

This link http://72.14.221.104/search?q=cache:www.dirtbusters.ie&hl=en refers to the non-www version (see "This is G o o g l e's cache of http://dirtbusters.ie/ ").

 

Cheers hadnt noticed that.

Already put up the 301 so shouldn't take too long for this to sort itself out.

 

Hi,

Do you excatly know how much time it will take to put permanant 301 redirecting page i mean when the refrence page disappears...
