      I have an English website with USD prices and US phone.
      Via currency dropdown visitors in Ireland can choose EUR as currency, visitors from Denmark Danish crown etc and via GEO IP I also serve local contact phone numbers.

      So I though it made sense to define this with the alternate tags, but now after several months google still does not pickup these pages in local searches.

      Did anybody have success with getting a website just with currency parameter ranked locally using the alternate tag?

      Does it help to have also static links (not only dropdown links) to currency versions on the page? Any other thing that could help to have google pick these up?

      Below my code sample:
