This is very interesting. I have 2 computers and both are running. 5 hours ago-ish I did a keyword search on the adwords tool. It said for January for that term, 49000 people searched for it. On my second computer right now, I see that the tool says only 9000 people searched for this term in google and the number of terms is a lot less then the other computer is showing right now. Wtf?
Okay I'm sure this has happened to a few people and I found people asking about it in DP about 11 pages into this section. Right above the search box in the adwords tool it says: Results are tailored to: then a language and a country. By modifying these results you get vastly different ones and some how mine got changed which initiated the huge differences in keyword search results.
