I'm interested to know if there is a way to "force" (that might be the wrong word here) Google and other SEs to update their website cache.

See here is the problem, Google says the cache of my site is from the 4th of May which is not true... I know because like a noob I misspelled one of the keywords in my title tag (now I rank #1 for that keyword lol) and Google is still showing my title tag misspelled in search results and in the Google cache, actually MSN and Yahoo still show the title of the site misspelled.

Any suggestions? Or am I just going to play the waiting game?

It's probably just a waiting game at this point. Have you checked your logs? How often does Gbot typically crawl the page in question?

Check this out [google.com]

Aside from waiting you may have a few options:

- sign up at Webmaster Central, [google.com...] You'll have some tools available including being able to set the crawl rate.
- get more links....the more authoritative your site, is the more it will be crawled.
- I didn't say it, but a link from Digg/Reddit/Netscape will get your homepage crawled extremely quickly.
- You can add the nocache tag

Yea actually I have an account with the webmaster/sitemap section of google.

I the site listed on digg/netscape/newsvine etc..

I might need to try the nocache because now part of the site Google has the right "page title" for, and part of the site its still spelled wrong, since I use a php include for the header of the site I know the page title is correct now..

So I don't know.. its been like a week. Even the webmaster tools tell me the cache keeps getting updated, but in the search results for site:mywebsitehere.com the title in the results shows the misspelled page title.
