So one of my sites has not been cached in 11 days now, even with 2 GoogleFetches I've done. I also have 11 crawl errors from the last few days. Anybody have any idea as to what the problem might be? THX.

    OK, more info pertaining to my problem:
    When I do a site command, the new pages that I've added over the last 10 days or so do show up in results, but when I check cache date, it shows one from the 16th?

    Here are some tips to get your website cached hope it helps you

    1. Time - The longer your site exists, the more likely it will be cached.
    2. Content - If your site has unique content, not found anywhere else.
    3. Frequency - The more your site is updated, the better chances it will be cached ...just because a website is cached, it does not mean success. It only means you have established some credibility on the internet.

    Site is not brand new, site is updated regularly with fresh content...
    Google is obviously finding content because on site command, new pages are showing but last cache date is ages ago.

    Do you have <meta name="googlebot" content="noarchive"> on any of your pages? If not then build links to the non-cached pages and they will start appearing in Google Cache.

    Google has not cached my home page in 11 days, despite me updating it and fetching Googlebot twice. I have no new msgs in WMT so am not sure what is going on.

    Why do you think they should cache it faster than that?

    It's a pretty big internet. They have a lot of stuff to cache.

    Just curious. Why do you want your site cached so desperately? Does it have an impact on SERPs?

      Once every 2 weeks seems normal for "normal" sites.

      Perhaps you are mixed up on being indexed and the being
      cached. I think one must come before the other.

      New content can be indexed, not cached.

      Subtle difference between the two.

    More like me wondering if it is normal for a site to go this long without being cached. THX.

      I have no idea what is normal. Each site is different.
      I only am going by mine. Google seems to get a new
      cache out about every 10-14 days for me.

      This thread is certainly indexed, but might not be cached.

    Since caching does not impact one's SERPs, at least not to my knowledge, two weeks is okay.
