How to see country specific search results in MSN/Live Search
Fri, 9 May 2008 15:46:00 by Kerry Dye

Back in January, Matt blogged about how to see Google.com results as seen from America and I’ve just discovered that a similar functionality is available on the new Live Search interface, whilst troubleshooting a geolocation issue for one of my clients:

Live results Australia http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=en-AU
Live results USA http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=en-US
Live results United Kingdom http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=en-GB

and what about

Live results USA in Spanish http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=es-US
Live results Spain in Spanish http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=es-ES

or perhaps a different alphabet 

Live results Greece in English http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=en-GR
Live results Greece in Greek http://www.live.com/?scope=web&mkt=gr-GR

I didn't test whether every ISO country code/language version worked, but this was a nice cross section!

Have fun...
