Questions and answers on the saved copy in Yandex

The page is displayed incorrectly in Yandex

When viewing a saved copy in Yandex, styles may not coincide with the appearance of the page in the search results: the location of the elements may differ, there is no part of the contents of your site or the page may be empty. An error 404 may also be displayed, although the page itself meets the code of 200 OK.

The fact is that the preserved copy is created not on the site, but on the resource at https://yandexwebcache.net/. When displaying the page, additional files with styles, scripts, etc. are often used.

If these links are indicated in the relative address of the format /style.css, when creating a saved copy of the address will be the format https://yandexwebcache.net/style.css. When moving to this address, the current page may not be displayed incorrectly. To fix this, indicate the absolute links to the necessary files.

However, this situation does not affect the indexing of the page with a robot and is associated precisely with the process of forming a saved copy to Yandex.

Blessed site encoding in Yandex is displayed

The preserved copy can not always display the text in the encoding that is used on the site. In this case, the text can be displayed incorrectly. For example:

To fix this, use UTF-8 encoding on the pages. However, this situation does not affect the indexing of the page with a robot and is associated precisely with the process of forming a saved copy to Yandex.

To check whether the page is displayed correctly in the search results, indicate in the search bar its address with the URL operator: (for example, URL :ya .ru). If the encoding error is saved, write to the support service through the form below.

Can I see the saved copies for different dates in Yandex?

You can see the saved copy only for the date of the last indexation by the robot.

Error code 404 in Yandex appears

Due to technical work or renewal of search databases, a saved copy may be absent. This does not affect the site indexing. Wait a while until the situation is corrected.

The text prohibited using the Noindex tag in Yandex is displayed

Noindex tag does not affect the saved copy of the page. The preserved copy is a copy of the original page, it does not show what was indexed and what not. Using the Noindex tag, you can be sure that this text will not get into the robot base and search.

Is it possible to prohibit showing a saved copy on my site in Yandex?

In a saved copy and search, different versions of the page in Yandex

The preserved copy collects data not directly from the search base, which is displayed in the search results in Yandex. Because of this, a more old or new version of the page can be shown, to which it has not yet been updated. This does not affect the search results. If a more new version has a more new version, then the robot has already bypassed the page after amendments. In this case, wait a few days until the search base is updated.
