Why should we target foreign markets? Traditional/local markets are shrinking • The Internet allows us to research and open up new markets in an affordable and risk-free fashion Competitiveness is increasing • IT can dramatically increase our competitive edge It is important to keep a low risk profile in new business projects • The Internet puts us in contact with partners worldwide to start joint ventures, maximizing the synergies and reducing the risks involved Traditional distribution channels are exhausted • Waiting for the good times to return represents a bigger risk than venturing into new channels and markets
Users search in their own languageAlthough English remains the “internationallanguage”, don’t assume that people in othercountries will use English as their first choicewhen searching
Using a language other than English means less competition in the SERPs 3.170.000 results in English 895.000 results in French 145.000 results in Norwegian
Using a language other than English means less competition in the SERPs 3.170.000 results in English 895.000 results in French 145.000 results in Norwegian
Keywords for the same concept can vary... even within the same country! Mexerica (SP) Tangerina (RJ) Bergamota (RS) People use different words for the same fruit in different countries and regions
Beware of pejorative connotations of very common words in other countriesFor example, Spain and Latin America use verydifferent words for identical concepts Agarrar Coger Carro Coche Manejar Conducir Monto Importe Mercadeo Marketing Cauchos Ruedas Cancelar Pagar Calzado para damas Zapatos de señora Jugo Zumo Etc. Etc.
Google Insights: which keywords are used in which countries (e.g., coches & carros) In Spain, a car is a “coche” while in Latin America, a car is a “carro”
Google Insights: which keywords are used inwhich countries (e.g., neumático & caucho) In Spain, a tire is a “neumático” while in some Latin American countries, a tire is a “caucho”
And there are countries, like Japan,where keywords can be written using three different alphabets Hiragana • Is a Japanese syllabary which is used to write native Japan words, like とうきょう Katakana • Is a Japanese syllabary which is used to write foreign language words, like トウキョウ Kanji • Are the adopted logographic Chinese characters that are used in the modern Japanese, like 東京 Therefore, the same keyword could be written in different ways!!
Google is not the only search engine in use Although Google enjoys the biggest market share, there are countries where people prefer local search engines
Therefore, we must identify the search engines used in the countries we are targeting
Other search engines: BaiduGeolocation is not available yetccTLD (.cn, .com.cn) and hosting the Web sitein China is favoredBaidu.com grants some relevance to obsoletemetatags like the keyword metatagBeware of censored contents and searchesAuthority of linking domains is not such animportant factor as it is in Google
Other search engines: YandexGeolocation is availableIts relevance algorithm is similar to Google’sInbound links are considered for thepopularity as well as outbound linksYandex also considers the keywords metatag

Domain Name TypesTLD (Top Level Domain)ccTLD (Country Code Top Level Domain)IDN (Internationalized Domain Names)
Domain Types:IDN (Internationalized Domain Name) It is an Internet domain name containing non- ASCII characters. This type of domain can include diacritics, as is required by many European alphabets, or even non-Latin characters such as Arabic, Chinese, Russian, etc. With Punycode, non-ASCII characters are translated into ASCII compatible domains
IDN (Internationalized Domain Name):problems you can encounter with Google Analytics <script type="text/javascript"> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push([_setAccount, UA-24296763-1]); _gaq.push([_setDomainName, .xn--espaaescultura-tnb.es]); _gaq.push([_setAllowLinker, true]); _gaq.push([_setAllowHash, false]); _gaq.push([_trackPageview]); _gaq.push([_trackPageLoadTime]); (function() { var ga = document.createElement(script); ga.type = text/javascript; ga.async = true; ga.src = (https: == document.location.protocol ? https://ssl : http://www) + .google-analytics.com/ga.js; var s = document.getElementsByTagName(script)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })(); Use the Punycode version </script> of your domain to set your Domain Name
IDN (Internationalized Domain Name):problems you can encounter with Google Analytics When filtering an IDN hosting, select “Include traffic” from both domain names (IDN and Punycode): www.españaescultura.es|www.xn--espaaescultura-tnb.es
Key recommendations for domain types If we believe that there is a potential market in other countries or that we could sell the domain later on, we should start with a TLD: .com If we want to focus on a specific country, then we should start with a ccTLD, like .es, .it or .co.uk We should register as many domain extensions as we can afford if we are serious about investing in its promotion
International versions: subdirectories, subdomains, local domains• When should we use a subdirectory, a subdomain or a local domain? – Subdirectory: www.yoursite.com/uk/ – Subdomain: uk.yoursite.com – Country code Top Level Domain: yoursite.co.uk• Suggestion: it depends on the number of pages to be indexed and on your popularity – Subdirectory: if your domain is not popular and you do not have a lot of pages to index – Subdomain: if your traffic depends on a single keyword or if you have lots of pages to index – Domain: if you have lots of content and can get tons of links
Subdirectory or subdomain?Questions:• Does your conversion traffic depend mainly on just one keyword?• Do you have the resources to build popularity for different domains?• What PR do your competitors have?• Do you have the resources to create a lot of content?• Do you have thousands of pages to index?If the answer is NO, then you should choosesubdirectories:• Subdirectories can quickly inherit the domain’s PR• You can set a different geographical target for each subdirectory using Google Webmasters Tools
Key recommendations on a domain’s relevance Exact keyword domains generally rank better for a specific keyword Popular domains in a specific country rank better for searches from users in that country Country code Top Level Domains generally rank better in a specific country than TLD’s Host your ccTLD on a host located in the country that you are targeting
International Domains: Step 1 Don’t let competitors buy your ccTLDs:Buy them first, even if you will not use them immediately mydomain.co.jp mydomain.fr mydomain.com mydomain.co.uk mydomain.cn
International Domains: Step 2ccTLD with no content: redirect them! mydomain.co.jp mydomain.fr mydomain.commydomain.co.uk mydomain.cn
International Domains: Step 3Multilingual microsites in subdirectories mydomain.co.jp mydomain.fr mydomain.com mydomain.com/jp/ mydomain.com/uk/ mydomain.com/fr/ mydomain.com/cn/ mydomain.co.uk mydomain.cn
International Domains: Step 4 ccTLD with multilingual microsites mydomain.co.jp mydomain.fr PR mydomain.com mydomain.com/jp/ mydomain.com/uk/ mydomain.com/fr/ mydomain.com/cn/mydomain.co.uk mydomain.cn
Key recommendations for a domain’s relevance Buy ccTLD’s for those countries where there is a chance that you will have business in the future Redirect all your ccTLD’s to your main domain while you build multilingual content Develop multilingual microsites in subdirectories to check the international interest of your products/services Develop fully localized Web sites in your ccTLDs for those countries where the feedback is positive. Build local popularity by hosting your ccTLD in a local server
Where is my server geolocated?ccTLD domain Hosting IP Inbound links
IP location: IP2location
Where is my server located?Akamai/ other CDN’s We can lose IP geolocation Setting a geographic target is a must
Where is my domain geolocated?
Where is my domain geolocated?
Key recommendations for a domain’s geolocation Host your international domains in the countries that you are targeting Faster responses and less latency will provide a better user experience Build local popularity and a social graph for your local domain
Multilingual Web sites Automatic translation It is better than nothing, BUT: • Content is translated on-the-fly: it is not crawlable/ indexable • Translation quality is just acceptable • Configure an event in Google Analytics to track the country origin of your visitors that use Google Translation: those should become your first priority when developing international versions.
Multilingual Web sites Content translation Pros: • Indexable content that can be crawled by search engines robots • You can obtain very good quality translations Cons: • It is just a translation. The reason people from different countries may visit your Web site or may be interested in your products could vary significantly. A simple translation will not address those subtleties.
Multilingual Web sites Content localization • It is indexable • It addresses the different expectations and needs of your multinational audience SEO oriented content localization • Provides all the previous advantages and, in addition, it will include specific keywords with high traffic potential in all the right prominent areas: titles, headings, alt text, URLs, etc.
Relevance: special characters and diacritics Google makes subtle differences for searches with special characters/diacritics • Most users do not use diacritics when searching • Works: including words with no special characters in URLs and alt text • Does not work: including words with no special characters in keywords meta tag, dc, object tag, noscript, etc.
Relevance: special characters and diacritics Recommendations 1. Your visitors will get a very poor impression of your Web site if you include incorrectly spelled words in visible areas. 2. Don’t include too many misspelled words as alt text or in other prominent areas of the page. 3. Don’t include too many misspellings as anchor texts.
Key recommendations for a domain’s localization Study your target for each country and adapt your content accordingly Find out which search patterns your target audience uses in each country Localize your content including search patterns and popular keywords for your local audience Do not just translate your content
