Date of page first indexed or age of a page?

[MBASydney]

Hi does anyone know any ways, tools to find when a page was first indexed/cached by Google?

I remember a while back, around 2009 i had a firefox plugin which could check this, and gave you a exact date. Maybe this has changed since. I don't remember the plugin.

Or any recommendations on finding the age of a page (not domain) for a website?

This is for competitor research not my own website.

Cheers,

Paul

If the page has not changed since it was indexed, you can do an advanced search in google and select a large date range. Then it will show the index date by the result. Be aware though, if it was ever changed since it was published it is showing the last update date. So you can narrow down that way also, by adjusting the years.

Hello,

if you search the page URL (exact) in Google at the end of the Google search URL type "&as_qdr=y15"

This can also be used with the inurl command on searches for a whole domain,  whilst not 100% its a start it also sometimes shows last cached version (don't forget there is a date filter on searches!)

I also wanted to give a shout out to the wayback machine http://archive.org/web/web.php
