Trying to determine something in Google

I am trying to determine if the changes
at google are returning "Regional" results

If anyone is willing to help it will be appreciated

Please Search Google.com for the
search term

Auto Loan

I am looking for the site
www.auto-loan-financing.net

In the results I am getting the site is number 6
My client is saying he is not seeing the site in these results
in NC

I would be helpful if you can post here what position the site is in (if Any) and your general loaction

Thanks

CP, you might also want to check www.google-dance.com if you need confirmation of the results.

It is number 6 if you do it properly (with the quotes) otherwise it's further along hope that helps

Thanks RJ, I know the Dance was last week. This is a new site making its first appearance in Google. I am trying to get a handle why I am seeing different results than the client.

I guess there is some truth to the rumour that Google is not using the same results across its datacenters.

Thank you everyone, for your assistance.

The results you have posted have been helpful. Not exactly
thrilled by what your observations are telling me. It looks like Google is determined to make life a little more difficult for us
who do SEO.

Makes me wonder if Google is using a slightly different
Algorithm depending on the datacenter

In theory you would expect that using the same data/site and the same Algorithm would produce the same results no matter which datacenter was being accessed.

In theory...it would be expected?

Oh well, at least I found some great proxy servers in the process

I think Google is still updating or trying out some sort of experiment.
You can also check www2.google.com and www3.google.com. www/www2/www3 should return the same result.

No search algorithm is perfect. But Google still kicks ass IMO.
Nothing like a clean...banner free search engine.
