Engines have script that use the following factors

  • Country level tld
  • IP Address
  • Link Analysis

Be careful of where you host your site especially if you are using a dot com.

If you have a .ca and a .com for example, the display URL will revert to the strongest domain in regards to links.

When translating, tone down English marketing copy into ‘soul-less’ doc about what you want to say. Then translate that doc. Next, have that doc rewritten by native copywriter. Lastly you can re translate to double check.
