if someone types something in a different language will the results be in their language? - BullshitMan - 04-08-2014 04:08 AM

i have friends in different countries and i am wondering if when they google for porn .. do they see the same sites as english people do or are the results in their language and sites made in their country ?

depends what language their browser is in..you cant see English when your broser is baidoo(Chinese browser) plus its just one and the same thing..just a different language

so they see the same sites apart from in a different language? do local porn sites not come up first ?

You're asking a couple different things here.

Google does keyword matching based on what you type. So if your friend types something in Russian, Google will only look at pages which have those keywords, which most likely will be on Russian websites.

Now, let's assume you're in the US and your friend is in Russia, and you both type in the same English phrase? Will the results necessarily be different? Yes and no. No in that you'll likely get fairly similar results; yes in that there is some weighting towards local results (e.g. your friend's first few results might be from a Russian site that has that English keyword).
