Thank you guys.
I just want to say: my domain isn't.Com, is domain for specific countries, like. CZ for Chechen republic.
My site has really big authority because we are one of the biggest brand in the country, but yes, we have a lot of errors and mistakes, also we don't use the hreflang tags correctly. -
It sounds like you don't have English language tag defined
#1 Look at the page source of your competitors that rank higher then your site
#2 run open site explorer on top 5 results, look at their backlink structure, export it to CSV file. Check webmaster tools for errors as well
#3 run deep SEO audits on your site, moz indexing. Correct the errors (check the site speed/as well as if there are any spamy links
#4 Take action, fix errors, build links, add content and repeat
You can also share with us URL and Il be glad to help you out more.

Rankings take time. When you say "problems with .com on English in my country", are you referring to the fact that you have a .COM or do the other sites have the .COM? I would concentrate on getting your site's Domain Authority higher and getting more trusted links to your site from your country.
Also, make sure you're using the hreflang tags correctly on your site, that can certainly cause issues with Google if they're not used correctly.

Accurate Rank Checking for Local SEO
Hi all, I am wondering if anyone out there has cracked the enigma of figuring out how to accurately find local rankings for multi-location businesses. I do understand that "accuracy" should be used loosely given the numerous factors that come into play for local such as distance from searcher and business location being located directly in the city of the search. So I definitely get that nothing will be entirely accurate but the programs I have used and the incognito browser approach just seems so far off. Moz tells me something different than the Google Adword Preview Tool which is different than SEMRush which is different than serps.com and so on. I have done the appending to search strings with near=city as well. I unfortunately do not trust any of them at this point. I would LOVE if my company flew me out to every single city we are in so I could do local searches but that is probably not going to happen 🙂 Any thoughts or recommendations for how I can get the most accurate local rank, even if it is an incredibly manual process? Is there an easy way for me to change my location anymore since Google stripped that option away awhile back? That was the ONLY time I felt I was getting somewhat accurate results. Thanks! -Ben

Local SEO For Agents
My company has local offices all over the United States, similar to what you would find with insurance, financial advisory services or real estate. We would like these individuals to rank in their local communities. A few questions: (1) Do we need to set up a unique local website for each of these agents or can we build a unique page for each of these agents on our main website. (2) Agent(s) within a city can each provide their services to individual in or near that city, but they don't offer their service regionally or nationally. (3) The agents are generally home based and while there is no concern having their phone number listed, there is some issue with showing a private home address. How does this limit local search and are there any alternatives. Thanks in advance

Best Practices For Local SEO For A Nation Wide Property Company?
Hi There, I've recently acquired a client that sells property all over the country (South Africa). It's in their best interests to rank well for localised keywords relating to the areas they have listed properties in. eg. Property for sale in example suburb/town/province. The project has a number of challenges which I'd appreciate any suggestions for The site acts as an aggregator for numerous partner property agents and, as s such, has a lot of duplicate content on it The company only has offices in one city. It handles online bookings which it then passes to its partner agencies - this presents me with a problem of creating listings in the areas I need to rank for I cannot list the actual addresses of properties Your thoughts and advice would be seriously appreciated.
