    Hello friends,

    I am a SEO from India & i normally work for USA & India clients. recently i have got one client from UK & they want me to optimize there website for google.co.uk only. I have only worked for google.com & google.co.in. No idea about google.co.uk. I have good command in google.com & google.co.in. It would be a great learning experience for me if I'll get some success in this.

    I was in India and now in UK. I have worked for UK website for both in India and UK. Just follow similar method as you follow for other website. The domain extension .co.uk will helps you to rise in google.uk...the competition for G.com and G.uk might be different and mostly for google uk its low. So lucky.

    Also try to build links .co.uk domain...this is the best tip among all.

    Best of luck

    I think the algorithm that google uses on the .com and .uk one is the same. You should just continue what you doing for your SEO.

    Hi Sachin,

    Please never mind, You question is very funny..I'll let you know down why it is.

    I also seen your signature which is "Just started my new Web Marketing Company to provide best web marketing services specially SEO Services India - Sachin"

    That means you are good to provide SEO services, but my dear friend you should learn more before to provide the best web marketing services. I am saying it because market is too competitive, it is because of many companies and service providers are working in this field. Leave it, I come to my point why your question is so funny....

    Your question is:

    "I am a SEO from India & i normally work for USA & India clients. recently i have got one client from UK & they want me to optimize there website for google.co.uk only. I have only worked for google.com & google.co.in. No idea about google.co.uk. I have good command in google.com & google.co.in. It would be a great learning experience for me if I'll get some success in this.

    I need your help in this. Is there any specific terms i should follow in this. Please suggest me some tips which can help in this.

    Sachin "


    I break your question like this:

    "I am a SEO from India & i normally work for USA & India clients" - It is good if you work for in-house or outside project, my question is that have you got good ranking in search engines on the optimized keywords for your projects? If yes then it's fine you can work for any client either they are from the USA or UK, because you know the Google guidelines and process if your are true with good results.


    "recently i have got one client from UK & they want me to optimize there website for google.co.uk only" - Dot be worry about that, it a good chance to show your efforts and it is easy to optimize a site for a regional search engine as compare to Global i'e .com it the domain name is regional?

    Fun start from here:

    "I have only worked for google.com & google.co.in. No idea about google.co.uk." I said you have to learn more if you are working for this client, because client pay a good amount and hope you will do better for them, no one wants to spend money in water. Can you please let me know what you do for .com and .co.in for good ranking ranking? You can do the same for .co.uk. It's not a question about you don't have idea about google.co.uk...... this means you even don't have good idea about .com and .co.in.,

    "I have good command in google.com & google.co.in. It would be a great learning experience for me if I'll get some success in this." - We all on this forum want to know about your good commend in google.com and google.co.in.... because if you have good commend in google.com/.co.in you should not ask this question. Definitely you will get success if you lean more about the search engines and the optimization process. But you should have not said, you have Good Command if you are asking this type of question.


    "I need your help in this. Is there any specific terms i should follow in this. Please suggest me some tips which can help in this." - We all on digital forum can help you if you can provide us a good summary about your project, you can give us an idea about:

    1-Site URL, we can identify the domain name
    2-Number of keywords, you are working on
    3-Type of keywords, Geo targeted or general
    4-Your commitment with client for ranking, how long will you take to give them ranking
    5- so on.....

    This list can be go ahead but it'll break forums rule, so by the above information we can suggest you better.

    Again I am saying never mind, it time to learn new things...

    Thanks

    Every thing as same what you have done for google.com or google.co.in is same to google.co.uk(directory submission, article, bookmark, forum). Simply you need to focus co.uk. Find out the site by sorting co.uk.
    site:.co.uk Helps you to listing uk site only. like wise find out all site from uk and do what you have done to others.
