U have to submit in location base directory,

 

Try to get more links from sites that are based on UK.

 

try to get links from uk based sites

 

That's right, get good back links from .co.uk domains.
Well i suggest you to do classifieds submissions for the local business,
I am pretty sure on this, you will find your website on top,
at promotion time, use word UK or United Kingdom, that will help you better.

 

appreciate the help guys..

 

I got listed on google.co.uk, but I do not know how I got indexed on there.

 

if your site got relevant content for something they searched on google.co.uk ... it`s ok... why are you surprized ??

my site got indexed by search engines i haven`t heard before ..

 

Get links from site hosted in UK and site with extension .uk but be sure also the site is related.

 

How can you find out that website is hosted in UK or not?

 

you can target your keywords by appending UK to the current keywords.

 

There are a few things you can do :

1) Use the words - UK / England / London... other local city / towns / suburb names etc... in the content and meta tags of your website --- this clearly tells the SE about the location and relvancy of the website.

2) Post a local address if you have.

3) Submit to Yahoo, Google, MSN - LOCAL section - if you do it right, google even would display the location of your business via a google map.

Google to google.co.uk type your keywords on search box then filter the results into uk sites only by selecting pages from the UK below the search box.

 

Hi,
i Think you collect more links site hosted in co.uk. and more activities do for co.ok extension. like some book marking and classifieds doing co.uk domain.

 

I always thought and read that hosting doesnt matter at all, hosting only matters if you have a domain with no location specified in google tools and google cant figure out its geo, only then it looks for IP to determine were to put it.

So by getting a co.uk for example google knows automaticaly its UK.

I realy doubt that a co.uk hosted in the UK ranks better or is treated any different for google.co.uk then a co.uk hosted in the US.

Atleast for FR,DE,NL,BE i'm sure it doesnt matter at all so most likely for the UK as well.

 

exactly submit your xml sitemap to google uk but the fastest way to get indexed is a back link from high pr site

 

some quick ways is to have a co.uk domain, to have UK keywords, and to be on aUK server

 

Try to build backlinks more from UK IPs.

 

Backlinks from UK sites is the best way to go.

 

In Google webmaster tools you can set your Geo location
