I’m Wilbur. I’m from the remote island of Monstonia, which only recently discovered the existence of the internet – and the rest of the world. I’m here at Webcertain to learn more about this “internet” and get to know humans from all over the world! Over the next 50 (working) days, I’m going to be sharing bite-sized videos about different areas of digital marketing to teach the monsters back home what I’ve learnt. From international SEO, international PPC, localisation and facts about how to do marketing in different countries around the world, I have a lot to catch up on! Here’s a little taste of some of the topics I’ll be covering:
- match types on different search engines
- SEO on Naver
- why you should never translate keywords
- the potential of Africa
- what trust signals to use when localising your website
- payment methods around the world
You can watch my 50 tips in 50 days series on the Webcertain TV YouTube channel, and I’ll also be updating this blog post every day when each new video is released. Stay tuned!
