It is definitely best to not pick anything if you want to target the world. Keep in mind, however, the top level domain (TLD) of your website affects this no matter what; if you have a .ca you will be relegated to Canadian results, .us for US, etc. If you have a .com and nothing about the site appears to be regionalized then you have a much better chance of succeeding internationally. Cheers!

Can someone please tell me if its better to choose “unlisted” or not choosing anything at all, assuming I don’t want to target any specific geographic area.

Good article. Since we are focusing on viewers from both Canada and USA I will leave the box unchecked.

Can it penalize your ranking in the Google SERPs?

Before my website was ranking well for certain keywords but then right after I set my geographic target to the US, I lost a bunch of high rankings.
