Shawn- Which data centers does your keyword tool pull from. My store is located here in San Diego, my server is in Texas. I did a search in google with location set in Florida and I am # 5 , in the tool it may say #14. Just want to get an idea so that I can interpit the data overall. Thanks Craig
Google automatically targets results as if the location of the script (the server your script is on) is the end user (they no longer have static results based on data centers). So if your server is in New York, Google may tailor results a bit for users in New York. Because of this, the results are *right* even though it may not be what you see from your physical computer... Google more or less tailors results to some degree on the fly for every user these days.
