This is part of the Get International Clients Business Guide 2 - Plan Your International Sales Road Map. A direct link is at the end of this guide.

Internationalizing your website is the first step in opening your online business for international business development.

Website internationalization takes your current website, the one you have for your domestic market, and adds small touches to make it appealing to international visitors as well as your domestic visitors.

There are two main reasons to internationalize your website:

  • Your website may be pushing foreign visitors away
  • Successful international business development leads to localized websites, and localized websites are much easier to create if you have an internationalized website

An internationalized website communicates well with all of your audiences: domestic and international.
