How To Rank Website For Google. de Au or other countries ?
This is a question for @Sven @ron as i think they have the most knowledge to answer but feel free to post your answer as well if you tried this.
I was wondering how can i rank a website in Google Germany (google.de) as well as other non-US countries
For example for Germany do I need 100% german diversified anchor text as well as a spun article in german or there is other way arround it ?
Thanks in advance for the answer guys

@seo4all - @Ferryman pretty much nailed it. The hosting and domain set the table as being 'from' the country where you are trying to rank. But there is also something important I found...
For me, the backlinks needs to be skewed toward Germany, but it should also be heavily centered on other countries that speak German or derivatives, like Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, etc. When you do that, it 'makes sense' to Google from a language perspective that other countries that speak German would be 'linking' to it
Of course there are plenty of instances where you blast from links all over the world, and it does great, but just make sure you take care of your own backyard first.
English or translated ?
Another case, I got recently two projects for UK, building backlinks since month with zero results in google UK, I experienced something like this only in Google UK, other countries works sometimes better sometimes worse but work on english language articles only and backlinsk from target sites all around the World not targetted to specific country but in case o UK something strange is happening, has anyone the same problem ?
For the UK site, try adding an English phone number/address somewhere on site if you haven't done that already. You could try the GWT thing too.
About language - I can imagine that, but the problem is english spunned and translated to german articles looks horrible, they are not readable ): so probably Google very fast will finding out they was created by automatic tool ): , do you spin English article before get them translated to the target language or just scrape and translate without spinning ?
I know it will be duplicate content without spinning but have no idea how I could do it other way to make them readable, are there any German spinner on the market you heard about maybe ? (:
I don't believe it makes any difference, but i know some people will disagree with that
I mean, putting german anchor inside English article doesn`t look natural to Google right ? (: so I just wondering how long Google will allows that usually (((: before it get penalized
Choose any language other than English and they are almost always low competition in comparison.
I ranked a Thai hotel site using that strategy, but it wasn't in BKK so maybe competition there would be harder.
With tougher keywords it might not be possible, but it works for me.
