There are some methods that can be utilised to override the automatic redirection, bypass Google localized search and access the standard version of Google Web Search:
1.If you usually browse in English then, at the bottom right hand side of your Google Homepage, click on “Go to Google.com”. This will take you to the English version of the standard Google Homepage.
2.If you prefer, you can type “google.com/ncr” ("ncr" = No Country Redirection) in the address bar of your browser. When you use this option the Google cookie will override your current preference and save this new preference. It effectively switches off the Google geotargeting. The next time you access google.com you will not be redirected to your local version.
3.Google Advanced Search (Google Advanced Search in English - http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en) by clicking on “Date, usage rights, numeric range, and more “ and then choosing the country from the drop-down list accessed from the down-arrow next to “Region” - choose “any region” or perhaps “United States”. You can change the language here also.
4.You can obtain Google Web Search results from an alternative location by adding or changing the “gl” parameter of the URL, for example http://google.com/search?q=google&gl=us or http://google.com/search?q=google&gl=uk
5.You can access GoogleTheGlobe and click on the US flag (or a limited set of other Google County Web Search options.
6.If you use the Firefox browser you can upload the Mozilla Google Global extension (the URL for the download page is at the.bottom of this article).
