CountryGeoLocations

AI Overview😉

  • The potential purpose of this module is to determine the geographical relevance of a webpage to a specific location. It does this by analyzing the clicks on a webpage and assigning a location to it. If the clicks are evenly distributed, it sets a flag indicating that the webpage is not location-specific. It also allows webpages to inherit locations from their parent pages.
  • This module could impact search results by influencing the ranking of webpages based on their geographical relevance to the user's location. Webpages that are deemed location-specific may be ranked higher in search results for users searching from that location. On the other hand, webpages that are marked as non-location-specific may be ranked lower or omitted from search results if the user's location is a key factor in the search query.
  • A website may change things to be more favorable for this function by ensuring that their webpage's content and structure clearly indicate its geographical relevance. This could include using location-specific keywords, providing location-based services, or having a clear hierarchy of location-specific pages. Additionally, websites may want to ensure that their webpage's click distribution is not too flat, as this could lead to the webpage being marked as non-location-specific.

GoogleApi.ContentWarehouse.V1.Model.CountryGeoLocations (google_api_content_warehouse v0.4.0)

List of locations assigned to a document.

Attributes

  • geoLocation (type: list(GoogleApi.ContentWarehouse.V1.Model.CountryGeoLocation.t), default: nil) -
  • isNonLocationSpecific (type: boolean(), default: nil) - This will be set to true for documents which receive several clicks but are not assigned any location because the click distribution is flat. Typical examples are global sites like facebook.com, chains like walmart.com, informational sites like wikipedia.org etc. This flag is not propagated to deeper pages since this signal is meant to indicate that a website or a part of website is conclusively non-local, so propagating this information to deeper pages does not make sense. If this flag is set, then the only possible geo_location will be the ones which are propagated_from_a_subpage.
  • propagationDepthFromParent (type: integer(), default: nil) - Depth of the URL from it's nearest parent in GeoLocation data. Webpages inherhit locations from their parent pages. For example, if foo.com/a is assigned location L1, and foo.com/a/b is not assigned any location, then http://www.foo.com/a/b inherits location L1 from it's nearest parent foo.com/a in GeoLocation data. This attribute is the distance from the nearest parent which is present in GeoLocation data. In this particular case, it will be 1.
