Ranking in a specific country
-
Lets say I want to rank for SEO in mexico.
Would a .mx domain with targeted content outrank global players (SEOmoz etc) in Mexico.
-
The answer to your question is yes. In fact is something which is already happening in many regional Google.
The reasons are simple:
- the country level domain name of the site;
- the content in spanish (mexican spanish, to be exact)
- links from mexican websites
-
For targeting purposes and better locate your online services it's better to use "Country Code TLD". Also there is another option in GWT where you can specify the target audience, look also into that.
Hope it helps,

Rank for a keyword with a slightly different designation
Hi guys, I'm a newcomer in the world of SEO. I'd like to rank for the keyword "therapy toy" but I'm used to name my product "therapy smart toy". Is a slightly different designation of my product can affect my ranking position in the short or long term? Thank you for your help 🙂

Does my website have a bad rank in google because EMD or lack content ?
Hello, I'm a beginner I just started my website xxx a few days ago. I submitted my url to several good quality directories (about 20, the last 3 days), I tried to write different descriptions for each directory. I have a very bad rank on google results (28+) for keywords "psychologue montluçon" I don't know if it's because of : lack of content, EMD, lack of backlinks (I submitted my website to directories, but its seems it takes a lot of time for updates). Sorry for bad english, if you can help, thank you !

Are keywords rankings a zero sum game for our site?
We’ve made pages with resources for our customers. These pages have been well received and gotten us some good traffic. But these pages only target our main keywords tangentially. If we continue to build up pages like this -- that give us traffic from our customers, but don’t directly target our main keywords -- will our target keywords -- and the pages that focus on those keywords -- suffer? Is it a zero sum game for our web site? Does increasing rankings and pages for certain keywords mean that other keywords / pages decrease as a result?
