Keywords with and without diacritics

[RIAdig]

Hi,

I am trying to make my site to appear in the search results even the searched term have or have not been wrote with diacritics for example: "șarpe" or "sarpe". The language is Romanian.

If I seach for "Românul cu maşină, marea victimă" or "Romanul cu masina, marea victima" the first result for both searches is the same. I don't see anything special on their html code and I am wondering how do they did it.

Regards,

Bogdan

Thank you SoleGraphics for the link but seems the issue is somewhere else.

I made some more tests. The keyword on my page is "matematică" which means "math" in English. I have searched on google.ro for "site:mysite.ro matematica":

• Chrome show no results
• Firefox show the expected results
• IE show the expected results

The google.com show no results on any browser. My site is relatively new so probably it will take some time for receiving results.

I am wondering if I am writing in the meta keywords the keywords without diacritics if will help the search engine to understand that the keywords with and without diacritics are variants of the same keyword.

They have set lang="en".

It probably has to do with their language and geo tags. I'm not too familiar with international SEO but that would be my take on it.
