Hi Dana,

It appears  the video and the video sitemap you've submitted has not been indexed by Google. I would verify that your video sitemap has been submitted to Google using Webmaster Tools. Next I would make sure that Google has crawled your video MP4 file and that it is in the Google index. I would also recommend creating a Google + page for your dealership and posting that video on your page to ensure a crawl of the video. This will also benefit your local optimization efforts. Hope this helps in your local optimization efforts.

Hello Henya, this is a great strategic question and ultimately relies on your long term growth initiatives for the United States and beyond.

Having .ca as your country-code top-level domain can prove beneficial for local search queries. This could be a contributing factor as to why the .ca site has brought in more traffic. Using site analytics can provide you with your referring sources to confirm this.

Additionally, have .ca as your ccTLD will provide you with the ability to market to the French speaking provinces more authentically as you have the "home town" advantage of being a Canadian retailer rather than a U.S. domain.

If the U.S. marketplace is determined to be a growth opportunity I recommend maintaining the .com domain. Having the .com domain will serve U.S. and _should _ultimately convert your U.S. customers better than U.S. customers shopping your .ca site...again you can verify this using analytics. The lift in conversion should provide enough incremental revenue to support maintaining both domains. Also, if your client decides to open a brick and mortar store in the U.S. the .com site will become incredibly more valuable.

Hope this helps!

Matt
