Localization happens when your products and services are adapted to the cultural preferences of a new region or new audience. This process can encompass many areas of your business but our focus here is website SEO. What we need to remember for international SEO purposes is that elements of your website like content, backlinks and keywords will need to be tailored to the target market. The aim is to ensure that search engines easily identify which region and language your webpages are aimed at and that the nature of the content corresponds to local searches.

That we reflect on the year behind us by assigning words is certainly revealing. It’s yet another example of how we use language to gain an understanding of what’s going on in the world and how we feel about it. Language is at the heart of our existence and as perhaps our greatest invention, it is an intrinsic element of our very humanity. 2022 has shown us more than ever that language matters.

On the homepage of our t’works website we proudly promote the fact that our language services incorporate ‘native speaker in-house specialists [who] translate into more than 50 languages’.
