Google Search Engine thinks I am in Australia. how to change?. Please help

Hello Team,
I am facing a lot of issue with my Etsy shop - Vivaha from last 1 Year. I am etsy seller from Feb 2016 till date and because of some technical issues (I feel it is the issue created by Etsy Technical people only) i am not able to get any sales.

Issue is - 
When I search in google - "Vivaha Etsy shop", google shows me the result of my shop in Australia (https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/Vivaha)

I request you to please check once and help me.

Thank you.

That's just the last time Google crawled your shop home page. It happened to be from Australia. It doesn't mean that you are from Australia.

When you Google my shop, you usually get the .com version of Etsy, even though I am in Canada.

@Vivaha: If you ship to a specific country, then you can be included in a country orientated market page and that is what Google must have found while crawling Etsy. When we did a google search for your shop name we got New Zealand results.

"I request you to please check once and help me." Just so you know, even if Etsy Support or the Help Pages sent you here this is a seller peer to peer forum, and should not be considered a way to contact Etsy, if that is your hope (although Etsy does sometimes read and reply to posts).

Thank you for your message. I searched your shop in Google and i got this link - https://www.etsy.com/shop/BagmakerSupply

And in this there nothing which google added based on my county which is India.
So I feel there is something happened with my shop.

I usually get 50-70 Orders a month but from last 1 year, I get 1 order per week only.

@Vivaha as I explained, this is just the last time Google crawled your shop. Next time might be a different country. It's not going to have any effect on your business, even if all of your traffic usually comes from Google.  

I am in Canada & usually do not see Canada on my shop name unless I search through Google Canada. 

You can improve your crawl frequency by updating your shop often and optimizing the home page. There is nothing Etsy can do to help you with this.

@Vivaha: "So I feel there is something happened with my shop. I usually get 50-70 Orders a month but from last 1 year, I get 1 order per week only." That is very possible, but with all the testing and tweaking that Etsy does it is almost impossible to ever make cause and effect correlations. However it is a safe bet that which link to your shop Google provides is not a factor of any significance.
