Page ranking on all googles except google.com?

Hey all,

I have just recently started to try my luck at creating small niche websites.

In the course of creating my first site, the homepage of my website has stopped ranking entirely for my primary targeted keyword. Rather, the first result for my site is one that I have blocked in the robots.txt file...

Up until a few days ago, I had believed that this may be due to some poor (in retrospect) link-building decisions.

However, now I notice that when I try to look up my keyword on other Google pages (like google.co.uk), the homepage shows up normally, as it had previously. The page was #1 on bing.com for a while as well.

Any thoughts on why main Google may not like my page?

Thanks in advance for your time!

      Hello Johnben,

      Thank you for your help!

      All of my links should be from the United States. However, I am currently based in Bolivia. I don't think this should make a difference?

      Any particular suggestions to improve the on-page SEO?

      I've played around with it a bit, but haven't had any luck lately.

      Thanks again! Your advice is much appreciated.

        If your target market is U.S Google.com then it's expected that your links should be from U.S host. If you do otherwise you will rank higher in the serp of the host country, I don't know how you build your links or where it comes from so I can't say but basically that's how it works.

        Any particular suggestions to improve the on-page SEO?
        Just the basic stuff, optimize your title, description, keyword tag, content and possibly images.
