        You need to. use either a local domain and choose that domain or create a subfolder if you are writing all of this in Arabic or use a separate domain that ends in com.PK  hreflang or make sure you have correctly set up targeting in Google search console for .com.pk

        hreflang if you want to rank in English-speaking countries & com.pk or make sure you have correctly set up targeting in Google search console for .com.pk

        you are going to continue to write in English? make sure Google understands where you are targeting your website.

        Set a country target

        https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/62399?hl=en

        1. On the International Targeting report, click the Country tab.
        2. Check the Geographic target checkbox and choose your country target. If you want to ensure that your site is not associated with any country or region, select Unlisted in the drop-down list.
        3. find Pakistan

        if you want to rank more than one country or region look at the information below.

        • If the domain for a .com is taken will using a location distinct domain such as .com.au make too much of a difference in search volume, if I am targeting four different countries?
