USA Sites showing in google.co.uk

USA sites when clicking on "Pages from UK"..is this right?

Righty, quite a competitive market i'm dealing with at the moment, let alone having several American Heavyweights start showing up in google adwords when i'm in www.google.co.uk and have selected to view pages from the UK.

They aren't UK sites, even though they may sell to UK customers over here. Is this allowed? I know a few things i can do "in the real world" to stop them taking our market, but should "pages from the UK" actually BE pages from the UK?

we live in a free world my friend.

are you referring to adwords ads showing when selecting pages from the UK, if so, there in lies your answer.

pages from the UK, only refers to natural organic results, not ads, which can be chosen by anyone wishing to advertise in the UK.

Righty, I see what you mean in with regards to the separtation of Ads and organic results....however, does the average person know this?

Hmm

Rich, why don't you take revenge by making those darned Yankees look at your ads? Can be done with a few clicks (under Campaign Settings)
