Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Gordon, As Paul mentioned, we do have a large number of country specific search engines that you can use to track keywords in other languages. However, we do have some encoding issues with non-Latin character sets. We have had complaints about Katakana, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Arabic, and some others character sets. As of now, it only affects specific characters, so we still support those languages sets in our tools. Our engineers are looking at instances of this issue in depth and trying to push out a fix. We hope to be able to support all non-Latin characters soon. As of now there is no ETA on a fix for this, but we will update you here when we do have the issue figured out. If you have any other questions about this issue, you can also write into us at help@seomoz.org. Best of luck, Chiaryn

Perhaps the OP was doing a site command with www. in the URL as per his message. But yes, the site has definitely been crawled and indexed. If you want to see some actual crawl stats, verify your site with Google Webmaster Tools: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/

Hi Tom, It looks like Google is serving a default or script produced version of your Meta Description in result pages which is this: Music Degree and Performing Art Degree from Authentic University. Several Dozen Majors to choose from Bachelor, Master and PHD levels. However, the meta description for _http://www.registereddegree.com/music-degree_ is indeed "Registered Degree" as the On-Page tool reported. Below is the Meta data pulled from the raw HTML on the page you mentioned: name="description" content="Registered Degree" /> name="keywords" content="music degree" /> Looks like you're using Wordpress as a CMS (could be mistaken) but there is likely a setting on the page itself to enter a unique Meta Description, and depending on what SEO plugins / configuration you're using, there should also be a "Default Meta Description" setting. It's possible the you have two plugins that are conflicting, and causing duplicate Meta Descriptions to be be served. Hope this helps! Anthony

I really think the biggest factor is whether all the content is going to be exactly the same but translated in dif. languages or you are creating a product or service that spans 10 different countries. For example; if you are creating a site about how to stop smoking or about the same products and you translate that to 10 different languages then I suggest using Ryan's approach. If however you are creating something country specific, like a directory for businesses in each specific country then I would simply run with 10 domains (if you're lucky enough to find the same name with each ccTLD for the countries you're targeting) I'm guessing that if you are willing to make the effort to redo the content in so many languages then the financial payout should warrant spending the money to buy 10 domains + hosting etc. If you specified the topic of your site someone who's already done it might offer better advice, hope this helps
