Can't find Text-Only Cached version in Google search
-
Hi,
I'm trying to view the text-only of a webpage to run a SEO audit, however Google does not give me this option. When i click the two arrows that appear to the right of a search result, the only option I get is Cached.
Is there a reason this might be happening? I've tried clearing my cookies, signing out of Google, and anything else I could find on my troll of the internet.
I also tried text, only please! however whether this works or not is debatable considering it shows me actual pictures on the site.
Any ideas, or maybe another add-on that will work?

There are a few other tools out there that can simulate the cache view... such as <cite>www.seo-browser.com/.</cite>

Thanks Owen, the Webmaster tool is good but I would like to see the page as it is rather than sifting through code. As you mentioned, I think the issue is with how new the page is. This site was redesigned about a month ago.

I'd suggest using Google Webmaster Tools, and run the "fetch as googlebot" report. This will give you an idea of what Google may be seeing of your content.
I've seen the text only version absent for pages which are too new, or page that Google has had trouble crawling.
Exact phrase matches (using quotes around a query) is another way to get an idea of what text Google is finding from a page.

How do I hide comment reply's from google? Do I need to?
Reason for asking is Moz reports them as URL too long. Should these even be indexed by google if not, how do I hide them? Example URL : https://www.tansleyphotography.co.uk/farnham-castle-wedding-claire-chris/?reply-to=1876 This really doesn't need indexing, as it's just a comment on a blog post. Does it matter?

When Content creation isn't an option...
I currently work as an SEO/SEO in training. Oftentimes I get projects that require me to look at well established websites of big brands, the kind one would assume put a lot of effort into their sites, and make SEO changes. Additionally they want "actionable" changes that can be made on the fly so content creation, and most linkbuilding, is usually out of the question. Does this limit me to just changing meta titles and descriptions? What if all that seems alright too?

Telling Google SERP's my correct currency.
Hi, I'm having a problem with Google SERP results showing my currency as USD, when it should be CAD. An example of a page with this problem is - http://www.absoluteautomation.ca/fgd400-sensaphone400-p/fgd400.htm - can anyone see where Google is getting USD from on there? I don't see it anywhere in the coding. Thanks in advance!
