    Hi,

    I've just run my daily kw tracking... WOW! :D I've seen MASSIVE improvements on lots of terms... but not when check them manually :mad:

    Does this mean that somewhere in the world I AM actually hitting the top spots or is it the google API playing up?

    It is probably down to datacentre differences. You can use McDar's tools to find your ranking on different datacentres. The API probably pulls its data from one server, your manual browsing from another.

    Quite possibly, yes. I doubt it will be on 'microsoft' or 'google' but 'asdfsvczxawefa' is a possibility (in Urkmenistan) :D

    There is not a specific API server... The API also uses the normal data centers. The server the keyword tracker is on is in southern california, so most likely what you are seeing are results that people in southern california are seeing.
