Hi all,

What is google/ie and how does it get the data( I mean from which datacenter).

My site is showing #73 in google.com but not showing anywhere in google/ie. What might be the reason? Earlied both the lsiting use to be same.Which one is the latest google.com listing or google.com/ie?

Thanks
Aji

Google.com/ie is designed to be displayed in the left hand 'search pane' of internet explorer, if you set Google to be the default search engine within IE (see here [google.com] for instructions). However it's become popular with webmasters who are checking the positions of a particular site and so don't need to see anything but a bare-bones interface.

It seems very likely that the results from google.com/ie are retrieved in exactly the same way as the main results - you can hit any of the data centers that are available at any given time, depending on server load etc.

Thanks for the info,

Today the results are the same on both the services.
