I'm developing a tool to check competition numbers in Google, among other things. I noticed a strange thing though. Because the tool makes a lot of requests to Google, I need to use proxies to not to get banned. But the the numbers for the EXACTLY the same url and keyword differ when using proxies from different countries , eg: -proxy IP from US: keyword "iphone" - 433,000,000 results -proxy IP from Germany: same kwds - 367,000,000 results -proxy IP from Portugal - again - 378,000,000 results and so on... That's pretty big differences...and sometimes numbers differ even when using different proxy, but from the same country too... Why is that so? Do you get that with other kw research software too?
You are correct. Even using Google.com in english from two pc in different location but under same country may not give you an exact similar search results for certain keywords.
