My newest website is ranking well for a new website (2 months old); however, the website gets over 60% of its visitors from Google foreign referrals.

I don't mind the foreign traffic, but my focus is the US market. I have created other sites that have ranked well, but I have never had such a high percentage of traffic from foreign countries.

Most pages are in English with only about 20 of 3000 pages in Spanish (most foreign traffic is non-Spanish speaking countries).

Any ideas why this could be happening?

The site also does unusually well in Froogle.

I haven't checked any non-US Googles lately, not having had any reason to recently but it could have something to do with the site being only 2 months old. It's possible that the others don't show results in the same way, time-wise.

Is it hosted in the US?

Yes, it is hosted in the US.

Any other ideas?
