How to target 7 countries together in one site?

Hello,

One of my client is asking to target 7 European countries together in one site? Countries include UK, Belgium, France, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland and Turkey.

I am confused how to it.
Please help me with this?

 It is not possible to target 7 countries in one single site.
The best advice which I can give you is to create a separate site for specific country.

For an instant. www.abc.co.uk for UK country.

I suppose you need a different language area for each country you target.
If that is the case you can buy a domain and create a subdomain for each of the countries. Google will see each domain as a different website and you can target each one for a specific country.
You will have something like this:

fr.site.com
uk.site.com etc

 You can use href lang tag instead of having different website for every country if only language is the problem.

 Can you be more specific in what you are asking? Search engines like Google are used worldwide....

You can make a site more globalized by making sure you do checks to format dates, language, and other country features on a more localized level. Is that what you are asking about?

 It's not easy to target 7 countries in a single website. It takes a lot of time to do. For this, you have to use domain and subdomain for individual countries.
