Hello all DPers, I believed most of us are aware about free Google Adword Tool for our keyword research. It can be reached at this URL: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal By using this tool, we'll be supplied with hundreds of keywords and searched data for each keyword, just by entering any single seed keyword to it. The tool will provide both results, Local and Global data. However, i'm not sure how many of you notice the differences in the Local data provided by this tool if you use different browsers. I've tried a research on 'laptop' as a seed keyword (and other keywords too) on Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. Surprisingly (at least for me eek, these three browsers gave me three different Local data for same keywords. I'm not sure if it just happened to me or others too. Anyway, you can try yourself and see how's the results. Any comment or feedback are very much appreciated. Thanks.
I just tried it and got the exact same results on IE7 and Firefox. There isn't any reason the browsers would effect Adwords tool results. Perhaps you accidentally mis-typed something?
Hi KeywordFairy, Yeah..it's so weird happened to me..and almost impossible for browsers would affect results. I also do not know..but i'm pretty sure there is no miss typed. Actually i have screenshot of them but not sure how to attach image into this post. Some fellows from Warrior Forum highlighted issue of cookies, but i've cleared all cookies for all browsers, but still result are different. No idea now.
I really don't know how that is possible. But maybe all of these browsers will give you the results of what people with the same browser are looking for! When you use it in internet explorer he will give you the results of internet explorer etc.
Okay, I did a little research on another forum and found that many other people have had a similar issue, regarding search engine results, but I'm guessing it may also effect the Adwords tool. The various possible reasons for the different results include: - You being logged into your Google account while conducting your research, or having ever been logged in from that computer (make sure you are logged out of Google and then clear all the cookies from both browsers) - Your browsers could each be accessing a different Google data center. Seems like this shouldn't be possible, since you're using both from the same computer, but I read that it does happen. It's one way Google keeps its servers from getting overloaded. The data centers may not necessarily contain the same data. Woah weird. Someone is asking this exact same type of question on another forum, today! :-O one of the users there mentioned that if you're running through a proxy server, that might be the problem. Edit: Oh, that's you. Nevermind
