I had a thought this morning (yes, I know, highly unusual). We've talked in some other threads about cached content as possibly a function of in-bound, often freshdeepbot visited links. This is something I'm particularly curious about, as one could potentially offer a service whereby a very-often visited high PR site "rents" space for a short period of time for updated caching. It could be seen as advertising, as someone mentioned before, so that's not the issue. The issue is...does it really matter?

I was thinking that it didn't, but am starting to change my mind. One reason is the obvious: if the link exists when the backlinks are recalculated, then it's advantageous. However, what about letting Google know of some hefty content changes? On-page tactics matter (I'm one of those content is king believers), so getting recached quickly might make a valuable service.

Perhaps this next thought is best suited for a different thread, but has anyone seen the correlation between a lack of fresh-tags in the SERPs and an increase in backlink updating? I'm an antsy fellow that worked to get a lot of good links which I'd like to see get updated SOMETIME before the SEO contract is up for renewal.
