      Hello everyone,

      I am working on a project so the website is not online at the moment.

      My question is about Google's view on geolocated results : on the mainpage of the website, a bloc will be displaying local classifieds according to where the visitor is located.

      What will be Google's view on this bloc as it has no location ? A white empty bloc ?

      Bonus question : do you have any experience regarding this kind of situation ? How do you best deal with it in your opinion ?

      Thanks for your help !

      Best Regards,

      Raphael

        Hi Raphael,

        Basically, if you are only loading in results based on when someone lands on a page, and showing results that are not pre-determined, then you are right, there is nothing really here for Google to do anything with in terms of SEO. However, done right and this shouldn't be a problem and just write some great content for the page that Google can see.

        Presumably you will be using an iFrame or similar?

        Andy

          Hi Andy,

          Thanks for your quick answer. I'm not sure what process we are going to use for this bloc yet as my developing skills are really poor and we are still in an early phase of the project.

          Still, you answered my question ! Thank you.
