- Your websites should be hosted in the same regions as yours. For example, if you live in the UK, your prospective host should be in the UK, too. Similarly, if you live in Australia, your host should be in Australia too.
- Same goes for domain names e.g. .com.au for Australia, .co.uk for the UK, or .fr for France.
- Use specific geo-targeted keywords. For example, include a specific city name with the search keyword, such as “best dentist + in France.”
- Analyse the keywords with AdWords to find long-tailed geo-targeted keywords.
- Take advantage of Google Places.
- Create local citations; these are any websites or directories that have your NAP (Name Address and Phone number).
- Make your web page content relevant to your target market.
Good luck.
