If you have the Google toolbar installed, right click and select "Translate Page". The page will still be in english but Adwords will be for USA users.

I use www.megaproxy.com - limited page views per day though.

CGIProxy 2.0.1 [jmarshall.com]

Installs on a Unix box and needs Perl. Has been around for a while but I just found it. I tested it on a US-based web host and it works fine.

For those who aren't confident enough to install it themselves, there is an installer [install.xav.com] at another site, which also works fine but you need to set a temporary password at your web host first, then change it immediately after using the installer. Options in the tool enable you to anonymise your visits.

You can easily display US adwords by doing the following.

Just type your query in as normal into Google, then go to the browser address bar, add &gl=us to the end of the displayed URL and that will show US adwords. I think it also works for other countries. :)

Wow, tried that and finally saw what people mean by the eBay "Sponsored Links" results at the top of the page.

I also did &gl=uk and saw UK adwords.

edited to add the words Sponsored Links

Ronan,
First Post and Welcome to Webmasterworld,

That's the first post of high quality I saw in here.

I was using all the while translate page in google toolbar.

It's slow and takes so much time every time.

Wow! it works for Canada(ca) as well.

May be it will work for all the countries.

Thanks alot for the tip.
