    Please take a look at this video where Matt Cutts explains better about it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK6wf7CBYS8

    Geo tags is not really used to set geographical targeted users these days.

    TLD, IP, Hosting, Contents, Backlinks, Google.com/webmaster (geosetting) plays more important role.

    Geotagging is the process of adding geographical identification metadata to various media such as photographs, video, websites, or RSS feeds and is a form of geospatial metadata. These data usually consist of latitude and longitude coordinates, though they can also include altitude, bearing, accuracy data, and place names.

    Geotagging can help users find a wide variety of location-specific information. For instance, one can find images taken near a given location by entering latitude and longitude coordinates into a Geotagging-enabled image search engine. Geotagging-enabled information services can also potentially be used to find location-based news, websites, or other resources.
