Many of my friends ask me this simple question sometimes here in India, when ever they type google.com in their browsers they always get redirected to the google.co.in or their country specific google website.

Normally they used to ask me what is difference in between google.com and google.co.in, and does this affect the searches they make on google and the search results which appear.

Here is how you can either stop google from redirecting to google country domain or navigate to google.com simply from your google country domain

Fix:

Google.co.in in the google’s Indian web site where as google.com is the US website, so you are being redirected to your country google domain so as to filter your search results and provide you better results more faster by accessing the data centers located in your country or as near possible.

But this difference will be negligible till when you are searching something on google which is not country dependent, still if you don’t want google.com to redirect then type www.google.com/ncr in your browser address bar – ncr stands for No Country Redirect. You can save the above address as bookmark in your browser to open google.com always

Another way is to let google.com redirect to your country google domain and then click the link at the google page for your country which says Go to Google.com [ as shown in the image above ]
