      hi,

      some of my keywords with high volume are ranking on first page in canada, but in the states i am on 3rd pages first result. what factors are contributing this disparity. what can be done here in this case.

      is it because of my links and tld distribution or some server location thing.

      what should i do to rank better in the US?

      i have shared hosting server in singapore.

        Maybe, Theres a high difficulty in US and Canada is less. Cloudflare helps alot with nearby servers. And help to rank in all countries.

                You could use Cloudflare, free version. It's a CDN which offers a nearby server location in the USA.
