: Multi country redirect working with google I have company.com, us.company.com and ca.company.com, all using the same language, however, displaying different content e.g. pricing, imagery and text

@Michele947

Besides the conditional redirect, what steps have you taken to target these sites at their intended markets?

From what you've said, I suspect you don't have geotargeting set up in Search Console / Webmaster Tools. You'll need to verify both the us. and ca. subdomains, and set each to target their respective markets.

In addition, you should look into hreflang markup, which allows you to target content at specific languages and locations. Introduction here.

While Google does advertise "locale aware" crawling (i.e. they use multiple IPs and Accept-Language headers in an effort to process setups like yours), the above steps are still recommended.

In general, you should assume that search engines crawl from a single location and do not send Accept-Language headers, and so can't process IP and language detection without help.

Maybe with fallback?

<?php
$country_code = $_SERVER["HTTP_CF_IPCOUNTRY"];

if($country_code=="CA"){
$location='http://ca.company.com';
}elseif($country_code=="US"){
$location='http://us.company.com';
}else{
$location='http://company.com';
}
header("location:$location",true, 301);
exit;

?>
