SEO in UK

[10acne]

Hi, my site is ranking well in US but ranking bad in UK, how to SEO just for UK? Submit to UK directories? But most UK directories only accept UK site. Hope to obtain your valued advice.

Thks!

To rank well in the UK ideally you need UK domain name, a UK IP address and links from sites from the former. If you only have the later the UK filter will remove your site in Google.

I hope that helps

UK IP address is one of the most important factors ... the country of hosting is (perhaps incorrectly) weighted pretty highly in the Google algo

maybe why the skewed results in seoconest2008?

If you want to only promote in UK then first set your geographic target to UK in google webmaster. then optimize as usual. Do some article and blog focusing on word Uk along with your main keywords. optimize content in the same manner but, if you wish not to use the word UK in your title or description, its ok.

I suggest you to promote your site in UK Seo forums and UK Classifieds.

Looks like a drive by crap spammer who didn't realize his signature wouldn't show

So does that mean if i have a .com domain, but it is hosted in the UK, then google will not list it in its results if people search for my goods or services in the uk??
