Welcome to the Q&A Forum

nocando as far as i know. you might be ranking in G-news US if the content is relevant locally. When submitting your site go G-News you can chose some local preferences. These will matter (as well as location of servers). If you're not based in the US, you should still be able to rank with relevant articles, though the competition is definitely tougher there than in the UK. I have similiar issues with Germany and Switzerland (both in German): Lots of German sites can rank in G-News Switzerland. Swiss pages have a harder time to rank in Germany (probably due to harder competition and better-linked sites in Germany) - but they do appear, when relevant.

Thanks for that, but as we have multiple pages for a given article the drop down menu option needs to be there just wondering how we can make this search friendly, maybe have the links linkable...would that work?
