    Default Changing hosting or location of your site

    Hi All,

    In-line with the changes Google has made outside of the US recently with the ability to use geotargeting for regions versus language based content and Google having to sort out content for regionally based searches or those of you that use IP delivery or do not use language based subdomains with geotargeting, Google has now added a few things.

    First, if you ar moving your site (let's say to host a french subdomain in france - as this becoming a more significant technique in gaining in the SERP's) the issue has always been that it can take from hours to days for Google to sort this out and you end up losing days of traffic if not longer.

    Google now has a tool that allows you to tell them about the move.

    You can se it here; Change of Address Tool

    This is exactly what I'd looking for since I created a blog for specific country with different language. Good thing Google done new findings again that will greatly help online marketers.

    BTW, thanks for the info. buddy!
