Google different SERP's on different browsers and computers

[Walalayo]

Firefox is what I use on my PC to see how well websites rank for their keywords as its what I usually get on other computers, like internet cafes, friends computers etc.

But for some reason my IE and Chrome return different SERP's for the same keywords, I notice it would return what websites I have visited in the past, like it knows my history and returns what it think I am looking for.

Is it just a setting? I would like all to be like my firefox SERP's, how can I change the other browsers to this?

I don't think it makes any difference if you use different web browsers.

Yes, different browsers show different results.

There are some factors due to which ranking fluctuates. These fluctuations are not actual boost or fall of rankings.

You don't have to worry about them. For the Searching - you can make sure you always check the same way...
* Logged out of G Accounts
* Opted out of Personal Search
* Use the same computer
* Use the same browser
* Use the same Search page
* Use the same Search settings

That should help reduce the likelihood of "bias" interfering.

Before checking for keyword ranking on any browser, make sure to clear the recent cache history and log out of mail accounts/ personalized search.
