    How do i set Bing and Yahoo to detect my site is for the U.K version of the search engine ?

    My site ranks on the first page for lots of top terms on yahoo.com , but on yahoo.co.uk and the same for bing, its on page 5 or worse in general.....

    so i assume there is a method to tell yahoo and bing that my site is designed for the U.K market

    i have webmaster accounts for bing and yahoo and i have uploaded sitemaps .

    I ping them via my wordpress site each time i post

    please how do i do this...

    My site is on a U.K server and i have set my geo location to the U.K , my site is a .com , but i guess that should not matter to much.

    Where do yoyur inbound links come from? If you have a lot of links from the U.S. this could be the problem. Try buildling links from UK based sites, and possibly a bit of UK press with links back to your site and this should help.
