If you're planning to be at
Search Engine Strategies Miami
next Monday and Tuesday, stop by and say hi at the Google booth. I'll be there answering any
questions you may have about Sitemaps. This event is all about the Latin American market, so
here's some information you might find helpful if your site is in Latin America or elsewhere.
If you want your site to show up for country-restricted searches, make sure it uses a
country-specific domain (such as www.example.com.br). If you use a domain that isn't country
specific (such as .com), make sure that the IP address of the site is located in that country.
If you want to know what visitors from different countries are searching for, take a look at the
query stats
in Sitemaps. This lets you see the difference in searches for each location, as well as what
languages visitors use to type in their queries.
