How can I help with your international search engine optimization?
Search engine optimization (SEO) and content marketing are undoubtedly the best methods of attracting an audience and showing them what your business has to offer. Developing and implementing a successful SEO and E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authority and Trustworthiness) content marketing strategy is essential for building credibility and authority with your target audience. E-E-A-T is a critical component of high quality content that ranks well in search engine results pages (SERPs). It refers to the level of experience, expertise, authority and trustworthiness that your brand demonstrates in its content. By creating content that showcases your knowledge and expertise, establishes your authority in your industry, and fosters trust with your audience, you can generate new leads and build long lasting customer loyalty.
But what exactly is search engine optimization?
Simply put, search engine optimization is a set of practices designed to improve the appearance and positioning of web pages in organic search results. It involves using a range of techniques to make websites successful with both users and search engines. These include on-page SEO elements, such as headers and meta descriptions, as well as keyword performance analysis and competitor assessment.

International SEO vs. multilingual SEO: what are the differences?
In this regard, let me point out the subtle nuance between international and multilingual SEO:
International or global search engine optimization
International or global SEO aims to optimize your website for a multinational, but not necessarily multilingual, audience. Your target market abroad may speak your language but your local best performing keywords may be unsuccessful elsewhere. International SEO involves making sure your content is appropriately localized for the markets you want to reach. It is also focused on the technical aspect of optimizing your website to get the best results with various global search engines.
Multilingual and local search engine optimization
Multilingual SEO (MSEO), as the name suggests, is all about optimizing your website for different languages. MSEO services help businesses reach a worldwide audience or cater for customers within a multilingual nation. It is important to keep in mind that translation alone is never enough. Multilingual SEO experts can help you clearly define your target audience, identify relevant keywords, and ensure your content is appropriately transcreated and adapted.
Local SEO, on the other hand, involves website optimization with a view to boosting leads and brand awareness in a specific location, usually a city or region.
SEO techniques and tools to lay the foundations for long-term growth
Whichever type of SEO your business requires, I will use my extensive experience and technological knowledge, including AI-powered tools, to achieve sustainable results (only using white hat SEO techniques, of course). The principal SEO tools I use include Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog, Moz, alongside Google Search Console and Google Looker Studio. I also have experience in link building and backlinks, which are important for SEO as they act as “recommendations” to search engines that indicate other websites value your content.

FAQs about international and multilingual SEO
International SEO vs. multilingual SEO: what are the differences?
International or global SEO is about optimizing your website for a multinational audience, but not necessarily using multiple languages. Monolingual websites still need international SEO to ensure that they are appropriately localized for the target market. Just think about how the meaning of the word “pants” differs for US and UK based audiences, for example. International SEO also focuses on the technical aspects of optimizing your website to get the best results from various global search engines.
Multilingual SEO (MSEO), on the other hand, involves optimizing your website in different languages so that your business can reach a global audience or cater for customers within a multilingual nation. Here, transcreation is vital to ensure that your content is not just translated, but linguistically and culturally tailored to your target context. Lastly, local SEO is used to optimize websites to generate leads and brand awareness in a specific location, usually a city or region.
White Hat SEO vs. Black Hat SEO: what are the differences?
White hat SEO techniques and black hat SEO techniques are essentially opposite approaches to achieving the same objective. White hat SEO works to improve search engine results page (SERP) rankings by using techniques that fall within search engine guidelines and also optimize the user experience. Examples of white hat SEO techniques include relevant content, backlinking from appropriate sources and optimized titles and meta descriptions. On the other hand, black hat SEO techniques violate search engine guidelines and manipulate algorithms to boost a website’s rankings in SERPs. They also disregard the needs of internet users and focus solely on technical aspects.
