Thread: How to hide website content?

If I don't want to receive web traffics from the specific countries then how can I hide website contents for those countries

search engines/IP's? For example if I want to target only Google Australia and don't want to get traffics from other

countries especially from UK,USA countries, so is it possible to restrict outside visitor to visit our site? If yes then will

it have any negative effect on Site from the view point of SEO?

I am awaiting for your valuable suggestions.

Thanks & Regards

You can go to webmaster tools and target a specific region. You can also put a geo tag and a language tag on your site that declares your market and language.

I did both because I only service the US at the time, but I don't know if either of those two options "eliminates" searchers from other countries. On the other hand, both of these options would help.

You can block IP address of those couturiers...

And if you want to target only Australia you can set your preferred geo graphic location in Google webmaster tools.
If possible, try to get country specific TLD, this may help you in boosting your rankings in Australia.

Other techniques that you can implement to improve your rankings,
- Submission to local search engines
- Submission to local directories
- Backlinks from target country
- Active participation in communities that are popular in your target country

There are tools I have encountered. You might want to check on this blockacountry.com. They have tools regarding your concern.
