    Hi,

    Hope u people will be fine, i want to ask some questions. When we check number of monthly searches of any keyword in Googgle Adword Keyword Tool, it shows 2 columns, Global Monthly Seacrhes and Local Monthly Seacrhes. Both columns contains different values.

    1: What is the main difference between them.

    2: Is it true that Global Monthly Seacrhes Shows aggregate of number of seacrhes about a specific keyword from all Google versions e.g google.com, google.com.uk, google.com.pk. And Global Monthly Seacrhes Show Number of seacrhes only from some specific Google Geographic version e.g Google.com.pk.(if so for which specific geographic location it shows these stats?)

    Waiting for replies.

    Yes you are correct.

    If you look at the 'local' results, it will show you the searches that were conducted in the 'location' that you have set (the default is US).

    If you look at the 'Global' results, it will show you the searches conducted WORLDWIDE (including the local one).

    Please don't add if you have nothing to add to what has been said. It's very annoying to get notifications for new posts that add no value. If you have to plug your sig, find something meaningful to say.

    Local Monthly Searches simply takes its data from searches made in your specified country in your specified language, while Global Monthly Searches means searches done anywhere in the world in any language.
