Cached version of the page returns an error

Does any one have answer to this weird issue?1) site:domain.com says that the pages are well indexed but if I try to check last cached version of the page, it returns an error. 2) Every time I do site:domain.com it shows a different number of pages indexed. 3) For some pages where checking the last cache works, it shows a different version of the page each time. Could you please tell me what`s going on with my this new website?

  • Brenda Michelin: was it a clean domain?
  • Ajay M Verma: Brenda Michelin yes, it`s a brand new site and a newly purchased domain
  • Michael Martinez: The missing cache happens on and off. It`s nothing to worry about and may have been triggered by Google`s recent deindexing problem. The "hits" numbers you see at the top of search results are meaningless mumbo-jumbo. The really small numbers are sometimes accurate. The larger the numbers get the less accurate they become. You`ll have to use Google Search Console to check index coverage and live with the lag time.
  • Ajay M Verma: Michael Martinez thanks for the detailed reply. What could be the reason for the 3rd issue? Why does Google cache show a different version of the indexed page?
  • Michael Martinez: Ajay M Verma That`s a mystery no one has been able to solve. A few people have found some canonical issues but it seems to be a symptom for several different problems.
