    I get different search results when i search a keyword (my main keyword from one site) on the new version of google against the old version. The versions changes when i re-enter in internet explorer. (not google.com)

    Anybody noticed this ?
    P.S.: Yes, i'm not logged in or anything like that.

    How big is the difference? Because in my case, with the old version the site was #2 on the 3rd page and now is #9 on the first page.
    And i say again, i'm not logged in, i cleared my cookies, temp folder etc (ccleaner).

    I haven't noticed much of a difference.

    My two main websites increased 2%-8% in total. But that could be random, as Google tends to be :)

    It is normal. Do not need to worry about that

    I didn't pay attention to that, my website doesn't have any changes.

    I have seen minor different between results in local and US, under similar Google.com. The local ranking is according to Google DCs while the one in US seems independently different, and most of them are lower than local results. I am not sure what is going on anyway.

    I only notice the interface changes on Google.com and I think the fluctuation for SERP would be normal issue since Google might modify its algorithm constantly. :)

    Thanks,

    In my case there was a big difference in serps, from #2 3rd page to #9 1st page. :) And i also see a slightly improve in traffic. Anyway, i shouldn't expect to a big increase in traffic because i think i'm gonna get only 2 or maybe 3 times more visitors from the new position than the old one.
