    Hi All,

    Has anyone seen your site rank differently on Firefox and IE?

    One of my sites is Number 1 on Firefox but Number 3 in Internet explorer. ?????:confused::confused:

    Rightly point out, its not an issue with browsers or something. I just myself to confirm that too. Ranking has nothing to do with browsers

    Same here. Better rankings when using firefox than ie. Cleared cookies, cleared history, cleared everything. Will try different laptops tomorrow to see what we get.

    Hello friend,

    first you don't check keywords when your gmail account is opened and second you have to clear history and cookies , sure then you will get right result .

    Will probley be that one has user history and is using that or one is logged into google somewhere, gmail, google analitics, adsence ect ect.

    make sure that your logged out of google clear history cache ect and then look and you should get same results unless your sites currently moving about on Google as sometimes it will contact a different data center had this in the past, my IE google tool bar was requesting from a different datacenter to the firefox toolbar.

    But more likely to be the first answer I gave you.

    I had this problem made me wild for a bit, its easy to solve though.

    in the google search window when logged in at top right there is a link that says ""web History" click onto it and disable it. This feature modify s your search results according to your browsing tendencies.

    Should have added, when logged out you need to search something first for the link to appear.
