Are search engine result figures accurate?
The first lesson of search engine accuracy is that the number of results you’ll get depends on the computer you’re using and which copy of Google you’re using. There are several copies of Google in the world, and your search query will be dispatched to whichever version is the least busy.
The results will also be personalised, according to what you’ve searched for previously and where you’re based.
It’s also worth mentioning that I searched for myself and got 68 million web page results.
I’ve written no books, starred in no films, and you’ve probably never heard of me. And yet I’m massive on the web.
