Angry Hosting a .net In Ireland
Hi

I'm hosting a .net shopping site in Ireland and have a reasonable rank of 4, my problem is that I have good placings on Google.com and Google.ie but nothing at all on Google.co.uk.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to improve the sites ranking on Google.co.uk?

Many thanks

Which keywords / phrases are you trying to get good results for?

Where is most of your traffic coming from at the moment?

Where do you get traffic from?

Have you got links back from other UK sites?

What is the domain name so that we can have a look?

Google uses extensive geo-location (IMO) based on domain extension and where the host is based. It's very annoying, it makes sense for stuff like restaurants and stuff like that but most of the web is universal in nature. I don't know how to solve it apart from switch hosts to the UK but then you'll lose out on Irish traffic..... so in conclusion, I dont know...

we've got a reasonable amount of links from UK sites, the site is www,.shoppingcentre.net. To be honest most of the traffic is coming from
google.co.uk PPC a bit from froogle and a bit from overture.

We've got quite a few UK companies that are not having issues with this ...

Another option might be to move the site to a UK IP in Ireland - which is doable. This site is on an Irish IP, for example, but it isn't on a server in Ireland

That sounds like a possibility, I'll investigate this straight away. Many thanks!

Just looking at the site it doesn't look like it's been optimised that much for the UK market. Your title tags include the domain name only and aren't descriptive of the content nor the market you are trying to reach.
