Can u give me better advice on Geo Targeting...?

hello Guys.. Is there any one tried this method.

Can u help me Guys.?

That looks like a local city search link. You can do the same thing in local search keyword targeting and seo practices.

As for the ' highlights ' on the links, are you talking about the light yellow, green or blue light backgrounds on the links at the top of the page in google search? If so, those represent the google adwords listings and paid registered dmoz linked sites.

You can't get into those spots on search engine results in google unless you pay for them, if these are the same spots you are infact referencing.
