texte = I subscribe to www.webmasterworld.com to understand all that is happening in the world of Google. Are the "spammers" not allowing you to see the cached page in Google? Frankly SEO is the most important part of any site I develop. You can also try a wget from the command line to pull the site as Google would by configuring the user-agent like Google's. Be aware that they can still test your IP address to see if it's Google owned to determine what page to serve you so even the user-agent might not be enough. You can report the search results to Google using the link at the bottom. They are unlikely to do much about it though unless there is an algorithmic way to solve the problem.

I used to be first in the search results for a given phrase and suddenly I am 10th. The 2 domains that are now the first to ninth result are blatantly spamming their sites to Google and it has sparked my curiosity about how there doing it. My guess is that the GoogleBot is getting something entirely different to any browser. I would like to pretend to be GoogleBot so I can see what Google is getting. Any ideas much appreciated.
