Changes in Google UK affecting search results adversely

Google is trying a new feature in its country specific search engine. Google’s UK homepage usually offers a radio button which users can click on to receive search results that are specific to certain regions. This allowed the users to receive accurate and precise results for their search.

Recently while using Google’s Chrome browser people have found that the traditional radio button is missing. Instead, what is provided is a text link that sometimes appears on top of the search results while at other times it can be seen at the bottom of the search results. This inconsistency may cost the proprietors dearly.

The problem is that sometimes the text link is missing from the website altogether. When the text link is not displayed anywhere in the webpage the websites from other parts of the world are displayed at top positions in the search result page.

In these times of immense competition between Google, Yahoo and Bing, this small glitch could prove to be a big problem for Google.
