How to use Bing Cached pages for crawling


Currently I'm crawling websites using Google Cache where it has a copy of the websites. I'am just using http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache: + 'URL of the website' to get google cached webpages. But now for some reasons I'm shifting from Google to Bing. So in Bing is there any similar way of doing this.

I know i can enter into Bing cached webpages by clicking on the small arrow button and then choosing 'Cached' option, but to reduce crawling complexity i don't want to use that. So exactly what i want is URL of Bing cache + 'URL of Website'


Solution

  • Currently, Bing does not provide a publicly accessible URL similar to Google Cache for accessing cached webpages directly. Bing's cached pages are only available through the "Cached" option in the search results, as you mentioned.
