This may help clear up something that has puzzled me about a site I use and often search via Google.
https://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&q=site%3Ancdd.org+%22for+sale%22&oq=site%3Ancdd.org+%22for+sale%22 https://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off...
(In this case, I specifically put in "For Sale" to highlight the spammy drug ads, but they come up even without this).
Puzzle: I scan through looking for pages with "XYZ For Sale" in the title and then check out Google's cached version of the page. Sometimes, I see the spam in the cache, but often enough I don't.
So: how is it that the search result is different than google's own cache for that page?
