Generally speaking I try to target my articles for Google America and because Google America has so many English speakers it tends to have an effect on the other Google website countries I have found. I have found for example that a highly ranked article say in New Zealand with an New Zealand URL which was a very good article did not rank well in the USA Google. Generally speaking, while I may once in a while see some UK URL based articles, generally speaking UK URL based articles tend to not rank as well in the USA. In other words, USA URL based articles tend to have a greater influence in the world. I have found that USA and UK URLs tend to have the most effect on other English speaking Googles. Perhaps, an implication of this is that English speaking ministries both in and out of the USA should use USA URL's so they have more worldwide effect but I have not done enough research on this to make an definite recommendations (of course, a downside of such a strategy is that if freedom is restricted in the USA then English speaking Christendom would have all its eggs in the USA internet basket which could prove to be unwise). I do have a theory though that I want to share. My theory is that when your article ranks well at Google USA but say it does not rank well at Google UK the best course of action is to do two things. Get your article to rank higher at Google USA and also get more UK URL websites to link to your article. Of course, the same would apply for other English countries but given that the UK has the second largest audience of English speakers I am more concerned about the UK than other countries. I also theorize that if you can get your Google UK ranking to be higher that this will help you rank higher at Google USA and also Google Canada, Google Australia, Google Ireland, Google New Zealand, etc.
By the way, I suspect that the reason why Google USA URL articles
The '''most important''' factor in getting your article to be top ranked by the search engines is by having high quality relevant content. By searching other English speaking countries articles you increase your chances of gaining a top search engine ranked article through superior research in terms of your articles content.
