Localisation

Localisation

Adapting the listing for a market — language, examples, screenshots and keywords — rather than translating it.

In practice

Keywords rarely translate. The phrase people search in one market is often a different concept altogether in another, so each locale gets its own research.

Machine-translated listings read as machine-translated, and reviewers say so in public.

Why it matters

On both stores, localisation unlocks whole keyword sets that are simply unreachable in the source language.
