Why differents browsers return different search results?
-
Hi everyone,
I don't understand the reason why if I delete cookies, chronology, set anonymous way surfing in Chorme and Safari, I have different results on Google. I tried it from the same pc and at the same time.
Searching in google the query "vangogh" the internet site "www.vangogh-creative.it" is shown in the first page in Chrome but not in Safari.
I asked in Google webmaster forum, but nobody seems to know the reason of this behavior.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.

I just browse via Google.IT for "vangogh" and you're on N:2 spot after Italian Wikipedia article. I strongly recommend you to create account in SearchConsole and verify your site. There you can see in SearchTraffic exactly what position you get in SERP results.
Now answer for browsers - modern search engines return SERP pages optimized for specific browsers. That's why it's possible browser X to see some results, browser Y to get other results. There is no way to escape this unless you change "user-agent" string in browser with some plugin. Some engines are even going further that return personalized results based on IP, previous searches from this IP, previous searches from this account, previous clicks on SERP, etc.
The only way to get right position is with SearchConsole or special tracking tools as Moz RankTracker. And there you can see "average position".
