 * The amp url and the normal url of this page does not match:
 * [https://emperorpost.com/8-places-every-harry-potter-fan-wish-go/](https://emperorpost.com/8-places-every-harry-potter-fan-wish-go/)
 * it seems as though this page has been cached by google. Is there any way I can
   update the google amp page?

 * Okay, I deleted the old page and created a similar new page that solved the issue.
   But surely there must be a way to update an already google-cached amp page.

 * Hi jd1234,
    The whole basis of the AMP Project from Google’s perspective is that
   in order to serve your amp page in the fastest possible way, they cache the amp
   page and serve it from their own data centers.
 * You are right that it is a bit of a pain when you update or change a page because
   they may take some time to update their cache.
 * The only way you can speed that up is to employ some old SEO types tricks to 
   try to force Google to come and visit!
 * You can try this:
    When you update the page make sure you update the publishing
   date at the same time. Take the AMP url and share it on a few social media sites
   especially Google Plus. Take the post/page RSS feed and ping it.

 * Thank you [@lancecarr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lancecarr/)
 * Your reply is highly appreciated.
 * I also think google has some kind of ping mechanism that we use to get the cache
   updated.

 * I was also under the impression that if you search for the page on google (i.
   e. on a mobile or in mobile mode where the browser shows the amp symbol) and 
   you click on it, the next person to come along will get the new updated version.
   I seem to remember reading that in google dev pages somewhere and it worked for
   me. I clicked on the AMP link and loaded the page. I then emptied by borwser 
   cookies / cache and went back to google again – the amp page was then updated.

 * There is a great tutorial available on clearing the AMP cache, see: [https://getmxt.com/update-google-amp-cache](https://getmxt.com/update-google-amp-cache)
 * Maybe that will help you?
