Ever wonder what Google results are served in different countries in both organic and paid search? Have an International or geotargeted Google AdWords campaign running and can’t see the ads?

RedFly Marketing has just released the Google Global Firefox Extension which allows easy searching of Google search results in different countries without having to append the &gl=XX to the search string.

Google Global Firefox Extension

Google Global Firefox Extension supports all Google search properties. When you do your search, simply right click anywhere on the search results page, select “Search Google Global” and select what country you would like to see the results from.

I wish it would do that on a city level.

This could come in handy, I’m forever switching between Google.com and Google.com.au via the Firefox search box :-)

It works by adding the &gl=us or uk etc parameter to the url which is cool as I wasn’t even aware this existed.

Thanks for the mention Loren. If you or your readers think there may be any problems or can think of any additional features that will make the tool better for everyone, please let me know.

@Patrick - Yes, it does exist and is based on the same function as the Adwords Keyword diagnostic tool in the AdWords frontend.

@Hawaii - How do you do this anyway?

This is a great extension, it makes very easy to check how our PPC ads appear for people from different countries. Very useful, it works perfect, thanks a lot!
