      My website : www.pentrucadouri.ro, despite is a .ro with romanian content and is hosted in Romania appear for google.ro as a english targeted website.Google see internal pages as romanian ones but main page as english .

      In order to change this , I added :

      Also few days ago I uploaded a geositemap and I submitted this to google.

      Do you have suggestions ?

      Website ranks 2nd for "cosuri cadou" on google.com and 3rd on bing, but on google.ro ranks 11 .

      Thanks!

        Buna Ștefanița,

        Might be that you have some problem with your link profile. Didn't have too much time to check, but I have seen similar situations when gaining a lot of international links instead of local listings.

        I hope you will manage to solve this. (I will come back to the issue in the evening).

          Hi Istvan,

          I was thinking on that too, but in past 2 months I added a lot of local links, and I will continue to do this.

            I would propose to keep up the work with local link building.

            Your positions are not bad and with constant work you will have the chance to raise you visibility level there. Just don't forget to target locally.

            I don't really know the niche to well, but I would say that maybe you should rethink your link strategy. Maybe we can brainstorm in the evening if you have time.

            Gr.,
