Using uk google. I am checking my site to see how it is performing and get different results on my computer at home than the one at work?

When I type in

<snip>

at home I get the result

<snip>

at work I get the result

<snip>

At home it appears that more of my pages appear in google than they do at work.

I have tried clearing out all the caches etc and even using another computer at work which still brings up different results.

Any ideas please?

I would suggest that you remove the specifics in accordance with the TOS before the mods do it for you.

May just be due to hitting a different Google server. From here my result vary through the day. There are so many differences on each server, and load balencing makes different users land on different servers.

Are the results fairly consistent per PC? (ie. same/similar SERPs every time you do the same search on your home PC, your work PC, your alternative work PC)?

Are the results on your home PC the same/similar to those on the alternative work PC? What I mean is, are you only seeing two different sets of results, or more random sorting?

And do the sets you see correspond to any other results eg. a 'pages from the UK' search or even a google.com search?
