Frequently Asked Questions
Should languages use one domain or separate domains?
Both can work. Choose based on brand structure, operations, market independence and compliance. Stable URLs, correct relationships and maintainability matter more than the pattern alone.
Can machine translation be published without review?
Not for technical parameters, compliance, procurement and service commitments. Tools can assist, but terminology control, human sampling and exception feedback are required.
Does Traditional Chinese need separate keyword research?
Yes. Search language, terminology and trust signals in Traditional Chinese markets are not equivalent to converting Simplified Chinese characters.
