Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I don't agree with the "waiting it out" approach. Here is what I see when I think about your situation and your site: 1st: Where do your inbound links point? Are they pointed only at your home page? Perhaps if you link in using the anchor text "varicose veins" or "varicose vein treatment" that you link them into the "varicose veins" page...? Makes more sense. Apply this everywhere for various terms. 2nd: The page is very long. Full of great information, but very long. I doubt that people are actually sitting there and reading through all that. If you have THAT much to say about the subject, why not break it up into smaller, user-friendly pieces? Create a new page about compression hose, and how this can help control varicose veins < Create a new page only about Microphlebectomy, Sclerotherapy, etc or any other pages that have the similar structure of too many words on one page. Have your website grow, and become the authority on both the subject, and the treatments. 3rd: Interlink, interlink, interlink, and add CTA elements into the page. Make Google see that people are staying on your site for long periods of time. If you only want the conversion, then get rid of all the extra text, move it to it's own page, and put some buttons, offers, or something other than words! Relocating much of the extras will also allow your image galleries to move higher on the page, as I bet that what people scroll down to look at anyway. It's too wordy, break it up, and focus on what your goal is for people when they reach that page. If it is innformational, them provide the condensed version and (be subtle: making use of clever and indirect methods to achieve something) link to your conversion pages or related information. 4th: Improve your SEO: Page title: Varicose Veins Treated By A Houston Vascular Surgeon Meta description:Texas Vein & Cosmetic Specialists in Houston, TX, offers professional treatment for varicose veins. Visit us online today for more information. Could be: Page title: Varicose Vein Treatments Houston TX | Texas Vein and Cosmetic Specialties Meta description: Visit the Texas Vein and Cosmetic Specialist in Houston TX today. We offer multiple treatments for varicose veins and people suffering from vein-related pain or problems. Main image should be an H1 tag, since this is the page that talk about the treatments, not the current H1 of "varicose veins", as it's too generic There is room for improvement over the whole site, honestly. H tags are not targeting the users queries, pages not properly targeting where users are at in their buying stage, etc. This should help you get started though. Hope this helps!

Given all the other geotargeting factors are fine, using a domain name whose IP is from USA would be a good added signal. Remember, you don't necessarily need to have your site hosted in the USA for having a USA IP.

Hey Robert! Just in case the deleted response was not accurate. All you have to remember is when publishing a listing through Moz Local that the location has an existing verified Google Places or Facebook Places listing with a unique local telephone number. As long as a different local phone number exists with the above pages, they will be treated as separate businesses. This is how we can support multi-practitioner locations for Dentists, Physicians, etc. So Google+Facebook+Local number = 1 Moz Local location Then for any ongoing updates, you only need to update Google+Facebook as we import Name, Address, and Phone directly from those sources to submit. Hope this helps!

Apart everything the others said in their answers, and taking for granted that you see others "foreign" web sites outranking yours, I would consider others things than just geo-targeting factors. I looked at your web site (which is http://www.fastlaneus.com/... as I supposed reading your username here and searching for it on Google) and, if we consider the main keywords you are targeting: "Authorized CISCO Training (non personalized SERP) I see Cisco ranking in the first 6 positions with its domain/subdomains... this is quite normal; I see newhorizons.com, which is a business company with a global presence and with a great link profile (1000+ unique linking domains and DA 63). It's ranking with an internal page, toward which they were able to build and/or earn some deep backlink from 7 unique domain names. This is a good practice in order to strengthen important internal landing pages. So, at first, it seems correct its presence; I see pearsonvue.com.. another huge company with global presence and with giant link profile. It ranks worst than newhorizons.com possibly because its on-site SEO is less than perfect, but it is the clear example of how having a great link profile still matters a lot; I see lrseducationservices.com, which is company smaller than the others (its a Pearson Vue Test Center too). It's 100% USA based (Illinois). It is not a web site we would expect to see ranking in page 1: a) Almost non-existent link profile and b) the page ranking is not exactly optimized for "Authorized CISCO Training". I don't have the time to dig deeper into the reason why Google shows this site, but I would not exclude a test Google does sometimes (showing something worth in the 1st page and start seeing user signals); Finally, in position 10, I see globalknowledge.com. Again another multinational company with a link profile much stronger than the one your site owns. Good news... fastlaneus.com is ranking in position 11. This means that the situation is not that bad at all. Maybe you should start thinking more about creating content marketing campaigns that can bring you: Big links; Great brand visibility; Increase of branded and direct traffic. Other things: Improve, then, the quality of your blog, so to earn more interested readers (I read few posts, and they tend to be a masked infomercial). Create content you promised with a link (webinars) and that in reality do not exist (I don't see any link to any webinar in the webinar page); The webinar page, as everything related to your "community" is sitting in a different domain name (http://fastlane-community.com/). I don't know the reasons of this decision, but maybe you should start thinking about consolidating the community part into the main web site. The infographic of your site are not really my style (too verbose)... and they lack of any opportunity to be share (no single page with social media buttons for social sharing and no text commenting the infographic, no embed code for the infographic... nada de nada) Your brochures/PDFs are indexed... why? a PDF like this http://www.fastlaneus.com/medi_a/pdf/Cisco-Training_US_8-pg_web.pdf substantially targets the same main keywords you want your organic html landing pages to rank. And I could continue, but I stop because this is not the place for an audit :D... and also because imagine your site is not fastlaneus.com despite of your user name!!!! :D. Everything you think about geotargeting and geo-localization of the SERPs is true in theory. In reality Google tends to show the sites it considers better responding to the search intents. And in this effort Google sometimes gets things wrong, as when it presents sites clearly targeting another country (and regional Google) in Google.com. This also may happen for another reason that in the USA tends to be forgotten. Formerly Google.com is not only for targeting the USA, but for targeting the global public. It is only because of recurring habit in the States and the same history of Google that made Google.com the preferred Google for targeting USA, so much that if you type in google.us, you are redirected to google.com (302 redirect). To conclude this "essay"... If you are targeting the USA public, then geo-target your site in Search Console (see links in the others answers); Start thinking about my suggestions above Implement the hreflang annotations, so to suggest Google what site should be presented to the users depending on their location and language.

Ok, thanks for clarification, RDFA is a new one on me, but that makes sense now. Thanks for taking the trouble - I'll sit tight and wait for Google then.

You have a yellow pages style of website Yes You'd like to rank each category/keyword page when someone searches for that category in Google Categories are ranked pretty Good in Google (we have 350 categories, where we list companies). We added text for every category (300 words each) There are around 200000 long tailed keywords (search phrases or keywords from) from every single company - impossible to add manual text. So we want something automatic, that Google would have to index. At least 50 words. I know that we would not rank in top positions but at least some long tail keywords would bring traffic. Currently you list the companies in that category on the page - but the rest of the page doesn't have text (or 'rankable content') True to that. You're thinking of ways to add more content to the page to help it rank better True to that. We have a list of 3000 articles, that rank damn good (added daily) in Google. And yes we add interviews as well. And still I believe that some text would help. But can figure out what would do the trick.

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, you're posting spun content? Are you spinning someone else's content or are you spinning your own content? Separately from that, social media has no real direct impact on SEO, and duplication through shares across social is kind of the whole point of social, so I wouldn't worry about that hurting anything. Nor would I seriously pursue it as an SEO tactic. The value of social to SEO is that it amplifies your content's reach, and more eyeballs on your content translates to more potential for attracting natural links. But the shares themselves do nothing to help SEO right now. In the future, maybe.

Hi Devanur, Thanks for your valuable input. Regards, Anirban

Thanks again!

Hi Gianluca, Sorry for the delay!!! Thanks for your answer. I just got what I needed Cheers

99% of internet users are aware of only two TLD, their homeland ccTLD and .com If you use .eu most of people who actually type the domain will either try their ccTLD extension or .com, so if you own the .com too you should redirect the .com to the .eu, but why do so? If you own the .com just use the .com, if you don't, change domain and use one with .com

I honestly believe that Google probably knows what users are doing on your website with or without GA, and that GA is just a way for them to show it to you.

That's exactly right!

Is is better to launch 1 or 2 pages par day or doing it by batch of 10 pages once a week ? I get 'em out there as fast as I can.  The big caution that I give on that is to not put out rubbish.  Spend the time needed to make every page a quality page.  It is better to have a smaller number of quality pages than to have a ton of rubbish. Does it make any difference ? Yes, to your bank account.  Sitting on great pages or great content is like sitting on money.
