Localisation and SEO: where does one end and another begin?

 

Localisation of Websites and International Search Engine Optimization (International SEO) are both language services practised for a website. But where does one end and another begin?

As Globalization & Localization Association (GALA) mentions in the post “Where does Web Localization End and SEO Begin?”, there is a thin line hard to define between them. Tom Robinson, Digital Marketing and Communications Executive in the translation company translate.plus writes: “Most online businesses know they need search engine optimization (SEO) to reach a wider audience. Web localisation, on the other hand, isn’t always such an obvious requirement for companies that want to maximize their reach. This is strange for two reasons. First of all, web localization is essential for engaging with audiences in a connected world and, second, the line between web localisation and SEO is rapidly fading away. In fact, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to know where website localization ends and SEO begins in modern marketing”.

"As soon as you start marketing to international audiences there is no SEO without web localisation. Language selectors, regional domains, multilingual content strategiesmultilingual SEO and everything else you do to reach foreign-speaking audiences ties localization and search optimization together."
