Prefere search results in a special country

Question

I want to do a search for products. I also get some results but they are located in the USA with currency USD but I want to get results from Germany with EUR instead. The language of the custom search is already set to German but the prefered search results are from US.

Is there a possibility to prefere german sides only?

Thanks for your answeres!

Answer 1

You could restrict or boost results from Germany with cr or gl attribute.

cr Restricts search results to documents originating in a particular country.

gl Boost search results whose country of origin matches the parameter value.

So, you could try:

<gcse:search cr="countryDE"></gcse:search>

Or:

<gcse:search gl="de"></gcse:search>

If you don't need "global" search, and all, or the most of your CSE implementations should be restricted to Germany, then you could set default cr or gl on https://cse.google.com/ > Search features > Advanced > Websearch restricts. ("Country Restrict" and "Boost Results By Locale".)
