Businesses and brands that operate on multiple markets across different countries, need to take into account several factors that differentiate one market from the other, as well as the challenges related to International SEO.

Digital Glory has considerable experience in being an International SEO Agency and we know what is required in order to succeed. There is no question that International SEO is more complex and demanding than standard SEO. Hiring an agency that can centrally manage SEO for multiple countries and locations is essential giving more control with less cost to the business.

Factors an International SEO Agency can help with

Local Link Building: Each region has its own reputable local websites. To discover them and many times to get listed in them, requires local knowledge and relationship-building.

Content Relevance: Your content needs to appeal to local audiences and potentially attract backlinks. Very often this cannot be achieved by simply translating your existing content and It would need deep understanding of the local market.

Translation quality: Accurate translations that are culturally relevant can be complex. Automated translation tools offer poor quality translations that are very easily detected showing a poor image for your business / brand.

Keyword research: different regions may use different keywords even for the same product or service and direct translations of keywords is often ineffective. Effective keyword research needs to be carried out for each target market.

Duplicate content: Similar or identical content in different languages, maybe be seen by search engines as duplicate content which can negatively impact rankings.

Tracking and Analytics: analysing performance data across different regions demands sophisticated tracking tools and interpreting key performance indicators for different areas becomes more complex.

Legal and regulatory compliance: different countries have varying regulations concerning data privacy, advertising and e-commerce, which you have to comply with such as GDPR in Europe.

Hreflang Tags: implementing hreflang tags correctly as to indicate language and regional targeting of your pages can be complex and easy to get wrong.

URL Structure: making decisions on whether to use subdirectories, subdomains or country- specific domains for each of your regions involves considering the advantages and disadvantages of each for SEO and user experience. If you choose to have multiple versions of your website, this can introduce added complexity.

Website Speed: website speed can vary between different target regions due to different internet speeds and server locations. Correct implementation of Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) can help with that.
