Global Digital Marketing for multilingual websites or for
content destined for specific locales (country + language +
geography) is more than just translating keywords. Today companies
should work with a combination of owned, earned and bought digital
media in order to drive traffic to their localized or translated
websites.

Localization of any media requires in-country native speaking
professionals to copy write and localize content in order to engage
potential customers. Whether you work with a traditional digital
marketing agency, or you are one, GPI's global digital marketing
team can serve as an extension of your in-house digital marketing
department to help you deliver your message around the world.
