Hi NG,

can someone shed some light on the results from the targeting idea
service.

I have 3 keywords :

wexford hotel
wexford b&b
wexford hotels

My settings are :

 $languageService->languageCode='en';
 $languageService->TargetType='en';
 $countryService->countryTargets='IE';

 $targetingIdeaSelector->ideaType = 'KEYWORD';
 $targetingIdeaSelector->requestType = 'STATS';
 $targetingIdeaSelector->requestedAttributeTypes=array
( 'KEYWORD','AVERAGE_TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES');
 matchType = exact;

Results I am getting :

wexford hotel   1300
wexford b&b     170
wexford hotels  5400

Results from https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Settings : English / Ireland

[wexford hotels]        4.400
[wexford hotel] 1.000
wexford b&b    140

Dont understand where the differents is coming from. Does anybody
know ?
Does it matter what country the developer or application key is
registered under ?

Thanks for any hint in adavance.
