Hi, when i use a lot of the tools on the net to check my position i get varied results. For instance if i enter term computer training on google.com i come in around 13th for http://www.learningsteps.com, but yet all the tools say i am not in the first 100th. why is this, is their a better tool out their, or is my site not listed in the top 100. i'm so confused by these tools. regards fergal.
Google has many datacenters, and your position may be different in all of them. Use a tool that checks all datacenters so you get a better idea of what is going on.
Its better if you trust Google and it shows you the 13th rank for your site, then believe it to be on the 13th number. Do not trust tools and manual cheking is better in my opinion.
