    At least two of the programs you're using are wrong.

    First, they are not real time

    Did you know even google aren't real time?

    Google has thousands of servers around the world

    It's possible different results showed for different parts of the world

    I have had the same experience. I have decided to stick with one , rank checker and just deal with it! I spend more time building back links and not checking my rankings. seems to work out better! good luck.

    Because all serp checkers are not accurate. It will give you the estimated result based from their computation.

      I've noticed I often get different rankings when I check same term with Safari and FF at same time - default settings for Google on both. Anyone know what's going on there?

    Rankings fluculate by the minute and you tend to get differing results, the Seoserp must just be wrong!

    Getting other results from different tools is normal. I think it's their servers and locations.

        All rank trackers have issues. Just pick one and stick with it, then do some spot checks manually.

        I've seen the following oddities:
        1. Some rank checkers count Adwords ads at the tops of the page, some count the Video or Shopping or Image links that sometimes show up in a search result. So I've seen SERP numbers go from 5 to 15 just by running the scan multiple times. Check it manually, then decide if you want to count those 6 Image results as 1-6 or not.
        2. Some rank checkers have issues with a "-" in a domain name, such as electron-plumber.com vs electronplumber.com. They may report a site that is not yours sometimes if it has the exact name with or without the "-"
        3. Google reports different results if you are logged in or not. You may have subscribed to your own site and Google will rank it higher for you, where the rank checker probably isn't logged in as you.
        4. Google reports different results depending on which of a few hundred servers you connect to. I have two different computers side by side on the same network sharing the same IP both using Firefox, neither of them logged in, but for over a week now one ranks a site of mine the middle of the second page, and the other has it on the middle of first page. Eventually they'll probably even out, unfortunately the one on the first page seems to be an odd fluke, as every other machine I try puts the site on the second page.

    okay, that is the common problem for checking ranking of our website. Here are the tools that I always use to check ranking

    1. www[dot]scroogle[dot]org/cgi-bin/scraper.htm (the best one)
    2. www[dot]hidemyass[dot]com
    3. www[dot]ninjacloak[dot]com

    Enjoy

    It depends on the server of Google they are using too. If you yourself search for something from USA and France, you probably get different results. Also it can be the problem of these softwares. None of them are 100% accurate. Manual checking is the best option for limited number of keywords.
