Default .ie to display in uk

Hi everyone. I have a .ie site and a .co.uk site.

The irish site is listed in Ireland and is on the first page with google.ie but no where on the google.co.uk one. So we bought a .co.uk domain and have the content that same as our .ie site.

Is there a reason that it wont list anywhere else

Cheers in advance

Joseph

Maybe google has penalised you for having 2 sites with the same content.

Default I was thinking that

Hi paul...

yea i was thinking that and i think i should probably go through the site and make it more suited for the english audience. But if it is penalised then that name is wasted is it not.

Otherwise is there a way to make the .ie site show in england or would a .com be better to do that

"But if it is penalised then that name is wasted is it not."

Domain should be fine, duplicate content gets filtered not penalised...

Default thats what i thought

Yea thats what i thought. So if i change the content then after a while it should get listed....

So google is taking that the .ie is the main one so anyother one will not be listed...

So some updating will have to be done i think

As far as I know google doesn't penalize for dup content it simply takes the most relevant page/domain and only shows that one.

Best advice is to rewrite all the .co.uk content to suit a uk audience, and hope that it gets picked up then.

edit: didn't see glengara's post
