So I set my target country to US in search console, but I noticed that I am only ranking for keywords in the US...for some keywords I am in top 10 but for Canada and UK I'm ranked top 100. My competitors are ranked similarly across all three countries.

Should I change the US targeting or just wait it out?

If I were you, I would wait. How long have you been driving your website?

It can take several days to get listed and ranked after the crawling process (depends of your niche and optimization), like NutriProfits said, i would just wait or i would try to optimize the site again and send it crawling throug the search console

Domain age? Trust flow? PA/Da. Total of quality links do-follow/nofollow. How do you track your ranking? Semrush/ahrefs? What the niche is about.. How much competitiotn you have... There are alot of factors.. You'll need to provide some info before we will be able to answer

I started with fresh domain... Trust flow is 10 now, but pa and da is still 1. I don't use any of those tools. Competition is moderate... I out rank most of the older sites already for US.. Just authority sites beating me now

You'll have to get this thing to age. Next time find something expired. New domains rank 100 times slower the expired. I would say wait 2-3 months before running in circles and trying to find the issue. My niche hitted first/second/third page only after 7 months even though i had all the factors on my side since day one. Crawlers are crawling on daily basis. Its has nothing to do with that. Google just want feature something aged. If you update constantly it also can be the caee.. Try to keep freshness but not to constantly.. When you change staff on your site once twice a week dramaticly it might slow you down.. For google its means your site is still not ready for audience engagment and slows you down until you'll settle down with something relevant.. Keep plagarism at 0% and the changes will come even quicker

It's not a big issue. An authority site can beat the new site. It's usual. Don't give up, just build authority links to the target page. Have you done any link building yet?

I've done link exchanging and parasites... Not sure where to get links

Possible experiment. Take two pages that you are monitoring daily.

If these are product pages, on one include text like: "Shipping available to Canada and United Kingdom"

On the other page, something like: "Product available to CN and UK."

Just something to get the country abbreviation/name on the page.

Watch for a few days to see if any movement. While not always the best indicator, you can also check the google cache of the pages daily to see if they have reindexed the page.

I wouldn't rush to make changes, but why not just add your target countries in search console if you want to rank there?

Do you want US or world wide traffic?
