Geographic webmaster tool can be used to restrict the appearance of your website in particular region only. For example, if your website is targeted to the users from Canada, then you can set in the Geographic target tool in Google webmaster center to show your website in Canada only. This can improve the country-specific search results.

It is completely a new feature in Google Webmaster tools and therefore many webmasters may have trouble in installing the tool in their website or save the setting of the Geographic target tool. For easy reference of the webmasters, I include the video of the Webmaster trends Analyst Susan Moskwa explaining how the tool works:

Google support center clearly explains how to make the setting of the Geographic Target tool in the webmaster tool center of Google account. You can find Google’s Support and now you can start promoting your websites in specific regions only. And if you are promoting your websites through Google Adwords, then you can save your budget and can get quality score.
