Browsing Google Global

June 8th, 2009, 12:27 pm

I own a few websites in a few different countries. I need to track my Google results in each of these different countries for each of my websites. I'm having some trouble. Here's an example:

I want to check my ranking in Google.com.au for a keyword for a site that I host in Australia. But when I run the search, I see that Google has placed some Canadian results in the search results because (presumably) it can tell that my IP is from Canada. I've confirmed the error in this approach by using a proxy server in Australia to compare the results against and guess what - no Canadian sites in that result (no big surprise).

I also downloaded a add-on for Firefox (called Google Global) and it has shown several fatal flaws. Any ideas for me? Is there a service that will allow me to connect to proxy servers around the globe. I don't mind paying for a solution as long as it works.
