For most results, Google holds an archived or ‘cached’ copy of a page.
What this means is that the page in the cache will load quicker for the visitor, and the search terms will be highlighted.
However, problems arise when the cached version of a page and the current version are out of sync.
You can tell google NOT to cache your page by using the following META tag in the <head> of your page:
<meta name=”GoogleBot” content=”noarchive”>

there’s absolutely no problem with them being “out of sync”.
There’s often a difference between:
1) current live page
2) last crawled page
3) archived page
it’s just a fact of life.
It is indeed a fact of life.
There could be 3 versions. ie they’re ‘out of synch’ – ie not the same.
