What Is The Best Way To Clone A Site To Rank In Certain Areas While Maintaining Existing Positions?

In episode 382 of our weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weP-5521Qj4), one participant asked about the best way to clone a site to rank in certain areas while maintaining existing positions. The exact question was: hey SM I have a site that ranking very well in Australia for its keywords but been in the SEO space has lots of content on the blog that would work in overseas markets too. I already have traffic coming in from the US, Canada etc. What would be the best way to get a clone of the site up to better rank in those places without sacrificing what is already there? I was thinking to grab a .com and somehow mirror the site and add a hreflang for US/Global if possible? If so what would you recommend as the best simplest way?
