So I used my umbrella query and tested Bing US vs Bing UK and I saw the same thing. Here are those results:
| Bing US | Bing UK |
|---|---|
| umbrellas.com | wikipedia.org |
| umbrellas.net | simplyumbrellas.co.uk |
| totes-isotoner.com | umbrellaheaven.com |
| umbrellas-source.com | brolliesgalore.co.uk |
| wikipedia.org | discardedumbrellas.com |
| strombergbrand.com | umbrellaworld.co.uk |
| mjjsales.com | umbrellas.net |
| peerlessumbrella.com | allgoodideas.co.uk |
