Google Bot Fooled!?!

Advertise on BHW
There's more to this that just updating the meta published etc properties. The google update time in the SERP changes multiple time while the meta properties stay the same. They surely are part of the story but anyone who has tried changing published dates on articles to give them a freshness boost will know sometimes it works mostly it doesnt.

I also notice different theres times for .co.uk and .co.in. I thought like you, they must be cloaking and showing different content to googlebot but it looks the same to me.

How many times have you checked it as googlebot? I wonder do they add some spun stuff to it every so often but only show it to googlebot once to avoid detection and then return the page to normal. But then would the spun content appear in the cache until the next spider comes along and see's the contents changed again?

That page has a lot of do-follow backlinks so should get crawled a lot.

not a bad guess... but its above all what we think... I have compared the cached version - text only- code only and normal view
 
Not just you, but even Google top contributors in official forum don't know how to do this.

There is a small misconception here. Google doesnt "scan" your page periodically in a search for changes, it uses a statistical algorithm that depends on the backlinks. The more statistically significant your page is per time frame (ie the more links it received) the better are the chances your page will be recrawled. The date you see on the snippet is not the modification date, it is the last crawl date.

It does regardless of Backlinks; Eg: Twitter. And, it is Last Modified date/time; It would be in accordance with Last cached date/time; Click down arrow next to the URL in the snippet to compare. And get your basics right. Bot Crawl cannot guarantee Index update. If you are unsure do not misguide others
 
Interresting, would also love to know how this is done
 
So, even if you do find out how it's done, how is it going to help you with SEO? Just because the website gets crawled frequently doesn't mean it will rank higher for the keywords and having "fresh" content on your site won't help either (just another damn myth!).

In case the user sorts the SERP by time you're holding the top spot or am I wrong?

It does affect SERP a LOT. Visitor feels that the content is recently updated so it's more likely that he'll visit that site. So, ultimately there's HUGE impact on CTR & rank goes even higher.

This site is already at the top for tons of keywords using same strategy. Just massive backlinks & timestamp!

I suggest you do the same. For example, search "thevinodzz is a clown" and compare the last cached dates with the dates appearing on the snippets.
