Search Engines in other european countries
Hi,
We are a UK based online reseller of computer media and duplication products. I had a conversation today with a company trying to sell me translation services to other european languages.
What the guy advised was to buy the domain names for the other counties like .fr for france and .es for spain etc.. and then set up landing pages in the target language and host these pages in their respective countries. Most ecommerce in europe is transacted in english so the company that contacted me gave further advice to then link these foreign domains to my .com - i.e. my main site and let the people buy from there.
Does anyone have experience of doing this? We already do a fair amount of trade into these counties but we are only coming up under the .com so it is suggested that having a foriegn landing page and domain will add too this traffic. Is it worth doing or are there any disadvantages?
All help and suggestions will be most appreciated.
