Normal access to Google Web snapshots

At present, Google's Web snapshots are almost completely inaccessible, which is inconvenient for Google users. This article will begin with the principle that Google Web snapshots cannot be accessed, step by step, we will find a way to access the snapshots of Google webpages.

According to Google's own introduction, "Google stores web page snapshots. When a server with a Web page is temporarily faulty, you can still browse the content of the Web page ". Therefore, the possibility of problems with the Web snapshot server itself is very small, otherwise it will become a joke, so why can't we access Google Web snapshots? We only need to analyze the specific cause of the failure, and then we can know how to normally access the Google Web snapshot.

For example, if you use Google to search for the word "Search Engine", you can see the interface as shown in.

At this time, let's take a look at the URL of the "Web snapshot" and we can find the following address:

Http: // 72.14.235.104/search? Q = cache: apvaeki1wxcj: Large

According to our test, the IP address 72.14.235.104 is accessible and can be pinged completely, as shown in. This shows that the Web snapshot server itself has no problems and can be accessed directly.

However, after clicking the "webpage snapshot" link, the message "this page cannot be displayed" appears. As shown in, this is obviously a keyword filtering phenomenon.

To analyze the influence of specific words, we can search for "Search" under Yahoo? Q = cache. Yahoo also prompts "this page cannot be displayed.

Now, smart readers should have understood what this means. Now that you know the reason, the solution should be simple. Is it in search? And q = cache insert some characters, separate this word, you can make Google Web page snapshot "back to normal ".

Or the Web snapshot of the page mentioned above, we copy the URL address of "Web snapshot" to the address bar, and then "search? Q = insert a "&" symbol in the middle of cache to make the word "Search? & Q = cache ". At this time, press enter and we will be able to see a long-overdue Google Page snapshot, as shown in.

Of course, this is an analysis of the principle that web snapshots cannot be used. In actual use, if we use snapshots like this every time, it will be very troublesome. If you need to use them frequently, we recommend that you install some browser development plug-ins to automatically replace the strings in the search results so that you can completely and automatically browse and access Google Web snapshots.
