Hi,
I have a jewellery ecommerce store primarily aimed at the UK market, my hosting is also based in the UK and I use Magento. I am looking at expanding in to the Ameircan market, my products will be slightly different as well as different pricing and postage prices. I am wondering whether it would be worth my while creating a second website using magento multi site and host this with an American hosting company?
In terms of SEO ive heard there are significant SEO benefits to hosting my American website with an American hosting company, is this correct? I will be getting my products stored and shipped from a warehouse in America and will be offering next day delivery, plus marketing and advertising in America including getting American backlinks, I can't really see another option other than to use Magento Multi Site... Any ideas?
Does anyone know how this would work in terms of domain names and google? How would I get my American site on American SERPs and my UK site on UK SERPS, as I would perfer it this way.
Thanks for your help,
Hannah
