    Hi,

    How long a search engine will keep the content/maintain the content in the Cache? . Otherwise I put it in this manner

    When the search engine discard content from Cache? Is it 1 Month or 3 Month or 6 Month or 1 Year?

    If any change is not made for a website/webpage for one year, What will happen? Whether the search engine remove the website content from the Cache? Or Search Engine Stop showing the website in Search Result Pages? Please Help! Thanks in Advance

    I would say it differs for every search engine how it cache or how long it keeps its cache. Some are archived permanently. You may want to check those archiving sites for eg http://www.archive.org.

    3-7 days , i would say, less time if the site crawled more often(aka- busier), more- otherwise, if the content is removed from the site, they will update after next crawling

    ahh, yea, didn't read properly- if the content isn't removed from the site, google wont remove it from the cache, content must be removed
