I think it still matters in local search, even if you have a local TLD.

I had a long discussion on this issue with an SEO expert and finally he has to agree with the fact that the hosting location does matter in the SEO and the ranking of the web pages.

not surprised that they value ccTLD so high, its really important nowadays to provide local friendly content and relevant service for specific country/territory.

yeah hosting location does matter for google, only a good SEO can give you the real idea about the location on the basis of the density of the target audience in a location.

If most travel sites are on .co.uk, people may think that it caters only to customer in UK don’t you think (except if they intend to really do so)? Using the .com specifically to any site like on this case “travel”, can also simplify the domain that is easy for the visitors to remember.

The guys Google have commented on this in there google webmaster channel.

Relevant video can been see hear http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXt23AXlJJU

With the google webmaster tool is very easy to define what country your website is targeted. From the comments from google that seems to there advice.

I’ve found that messing about out with multiple domains can have a negative effect on SEO. Worst case through bad management, duplicated content. Better to have a strong .com domain with country targetted sub domains.

ie uk.bob.com, de.bob.com etc
