Hello,

I'm using google.com from middle east to track search results for different search terms. When appending the string: "gl=us" to the address bar, the search results change in different levels.
Some search results remain still wherever it had been before.
Other search results change a little bit, starting from one or two slots, up to an entire page.
And the third group is search results which completely disappear from the serps, or move more than 5 pages off.

I'm looking for answers for the three following questions:
1. Do incoming links from a specific area have the most influence on the google area search? ex: links from .de, .fr, .uk websites will have less influence on google.com&rg=us than links from .com, .ws sites.

2. Do links from specific zones inside the us influence differently on different groups of IPs? ex: A network of websites hosted in Texas US link to a website. Maybe the linked website will appear higher for users who search from Texas, than fur users who search from Manhattan

3. A general question: What else do you know about Google.com comparing to google.zones ?

Thanks in advanced.

This has been discussed many times on here previously.

In a nutshell, Google use domain locator .co.uk (UK) .co.nz (New Zealand) etc, Physical location of the server, and location of backlinks as a limited indicator as well.
