I know it sounds crazy but that is what happened. Why would Google Germany have me number 1 and Google US no where. With everything else being equal the only difference was the server location.

Within weeks of changing server location to a US server rankings changed almost immediately. Not only on Google but all the only major search engines as well.

So Yes it does make a difference! It's another one of Google factors that is considered as to where you rank and what country you are looking to rank in!
