-
Hi guys,
I have a question. Do you have an experience about google national and international ranking algorithm. For example, is the same algorithm for " Google.de " Germany, and " Google.com "???
For example, lot of tactics, are valid and effective on google.de and not effective on google.com, tell us about this .
Do you have any idea?
Share your skills please! we need your help!

Hi,
Algos do change around the world, different things can be seen in different markets.
For example Google will favour .com.au domains in the Australian market because it is country specific TLD's.
Sure you can GEO target the domain via webmaster tools yet it will not be as powerful.
Also country specific links will work in your favour and copy which meets the users language for your area.
Do some TLD's have more spamy things going on? Yes I agree some areas we see that .com market Google has really been fixing it up for a long time other markets are a bit slower to move, yet with all the recent changes to the algo like Panda we are seeing all TLD's come together in a more combined sense.
Hope this helps.

Legitimate link building can always offer value. All the standard link building metrics apply. What is the DA/PA of the linking site, is the site relevant to yours, what is the anchor text, etc.
If your site sells artwork, clearly anyone in the world might appreciate and buy from your site. If instead you offer local plumbing services, then a link from another country shouldn't hold as much value.
There are over 200 factors evaluated to determine a page's ranking in search results. PA and DA are two factors. What about the content and the other factors?

Hi Ryan, thanks for your answer.
I mean, on the google.de are more spammy results on serp, like on google.com
i am trying lot of keywords, lot of domains with a low DA and PA forexample both: 40/100 are ranking higher than PA and DA with 60 or 70/100.
Than, exchange links, spammy directory, so things are working well.
But what do you thing Ryan, about link building internationally, i take an example, you have the domain " Ryan.com" and you are writing in english right, and now you post an article about my company name in english language, and you place an hyperlink to my website, is this danger, or not?
I am interested to know more about internationally vs nationaly. For link building everything, if you have experience on this, tell me please.
thanks

The algorithms used for the various ccTLDs like Google.de are not the same as .com. For example, Panda has fully been implemented for .com.
I would highly advise adjusting any site that has been penalized or otherwise seen ranking issues in Google.com. The other Google updates will be updated eventually.

Is Google Making Life Harder For Aggregators?
Theres been a bunch of updates recently which have hurt aggregators: Reducing the number of search results to 7 for branded search queries The DMCA update which penalises those with trademark related takedown requests against them. At least 2 'domain diversity' updates, the most recent last week, which seeks to reduce the ability of sites to dominate SERPS e.g. a site which may have 2 search results on page 1 now may have 1. Plus Its commonly believed that Google favours big brands over smaller brands e.g. Marriott over examplehotelaggregator.com. Is this a deliberate ploy against aggregators in favour of brands i.e. does Google believe a brand site is a better search result than an aggregator? A brand site returned above an aggregator for a branded term may be seen by Google as a better fit, a better search result that should be higher. But is that true? Consumers like to see unbiased reviews and lowest prices and that isnt always available at the brand site. Thoughts please.

Question on Google's Differentiation
Hi everyone, We have a short question that probably has a very long answer: What are all the ways that Google differentiates one search result from another? This is really important for us to know and, up until now, we can't find a really good and complete source that explains this. Thank you in advance.

How to remove a Google algorithmic penalty
My site has a Google penalty. I seem to be stuck in the 64th position for a Google search for my sites name. All my keywords that I used to rank well for are now well above the 60th search place in Google. I have resolved the issue I recieved the penalty for and I have asked Google for reconsideration. That has been about 3 months ago. The penalty is still firmly in place. I was wondering if anyone else has had a Google algorithmic penalty removed and if so how did they accomplish this?
