Just got a new UK client who wants to be highly ranked on Google for <competitive phrase>.

The .co.uk PR6 site has 400 links.

The .com parent however has PR7 & 7,000 links which should be plenty to get into the top 10 for the <competitive phrase>.

(The top sites for this phrase all have 6,000+ links)

Whats the most basic & simplistic method of showing the UK site to UK users (based on their IP) when they click on the US .com parent site in the SERPs?

All I want to do is send them to the .co.uk instead of the .com. (I'd also like to permit the UK company's IP to access the .com)

Any really simple way of doing this? The .com is running IIS5 on Win2k.

The IP delivery only needs to be on the home page of the .com as thats the page that will appear top of the SERPs

Thanks for your help
John

Probably the biggest difficulty you'll encounter is identifying where IPs originate. Unfortunately, there is litle correlation between IPs and geograpical location. Check out [webmasterworld.com...] for more information.

All IPs are from Arin (North America) unless they start with...

$apnic = explode(",","61,202,203,210,211,218,219,220,221");
$ripe = explode(",","51,62,80,81,193,194,195,212,213,217");

All $ripe IPs are European. So if you want a good divide between oceans here is the logic.
