    My website is hosted in Turkey,i have very good rankings on google.com when i search from Turkey but when i search in the UK which is the market i am aiming at,the searches are totally different.

    Should i move my host to the UK and will this affect my pagerank etc.

    Thanks in advance

    This is probably a good idea, it won't hurt your page rank. Try to optimise your site to compete with sites in google UK rather than google.com this should help your ranking in the area you need it. Also submit your site to uk directories and exchange links with other UK sites. Include "UK" in your site a few times. You will soon start to see a difference.

    If you use webmaster tools you can set your "Set geographic target" location to the UK, That should help! Its under the tools tab.

    Cheers

    Well you can move your site to UK but remember do not change your domain name other wise your rankings will be gone.
