Google Local Search Ranking Score

I know that you had a great site with English content and you were ranking Top 10 in Google.de .se .fr .ca .dk .be(local) for a specific term. But now you have added some new languages such as Japanese, French, German Swedish, Danish, Arabic, Russian.

What would you think should happen for your Google positioning?
Will you keep the same Google ranking or would you lose it?

Actually Google had a LocalScore Patent since 2001 named Ranking search results by reranking the results based on local inter-connectivity by Krishna Bharat

Rethink your Search Engine Optimization strategy when initiated to add new languages for your site.

Google Local Score Ranking

Abstract

A search engine for searching a corpus improves the relevancy of the results by refining a standard relevancy score based on the interconnectivity of the initially returned set of documents. The search engine obtains an initial set of relevant documents by matching a user’s search terms to an index of a corpus. A re-ranking component in the search engine then refines the initially returned document rankings so that documents that are frequently cited in the initial set of relevant documents are preferred over documents that are less frequently cited within the initial set.

For the Air Force, intelligence collection, processing, and distribution can never be too good or too fast.

We spent the last hundred years in aviation endeavors trying to figure out how to target any location on the face of the Earth, rapidly, day and night, all weather, and we can do that today

said Deptula. But then comes assessment, still a sticking point.

Never Too Good or Too Fast

For example, one of the best-known examples of actionable intelligence is positive identification of a high-value person. The successful June 7, 2006 strike that killed al Qaeda terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi came only after some piece of intelligence confirmed his identity and location to the satisfaction of those in charge. (See “Aerospace World: Persistence Paid Off in Killing Zarqawi,� August 2006, p. 18.)

More than 300 hours of Predator surveillance culminated in the June 2006 F-16 attack that killed Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al Qaeda in Iraq. The immediate aftermath of the strike is shown here, from the F-16's targeting pod.
Operations. Intelligence. These two military activities interact in ways that constitute a critical dynamic for all forms of airpower. Still, it is a relationship marred by a long record of cultural and organizational conflict, occasionally interrupted by temporary and uneasy truces.
