What is the best language for business or eCommerce websites targeting the majority of the population in Hong Kong?

If you seek to maximize your website’s organic traffic, the primary language for your Hong Kong website must be Cantonese. As most Hong Kongers’ mother language is Cantonese, there is no doubt that Cantonese content will bring you the highest conversions in Hong Kong. 

On the other hand, English is a business language that people use in their work. Banks, governments, large enterprises, high-ended retailers, or businesses targeting professionals usually have a Hong Kong English website even though it is usually less engaging than the Cantonese one.

Depending on the content strategy and user experience considerations, companies can use either English, Cantonese, or both languages for their Hong Kong website. 

Which search engine is the most popular in Hong Kong?

According to StatCounter, Google is the #1 search engine in Hong Kong, which occupies more than 90% of the market share. Other search engines that are used in the city include Yahoo! (6.94%), Bing (1.55%), Baidu (0.64%), DuckDuckGo (0.07%), and MSN (0.04%).

Therefore, it is evident that you should focus on Google to maximize the performance of your SEO and SEM campaigns.

Does SEO work for small businesses?

Due to the limitation of the marketing budget, it’s uneasy for SMEs to compete with large companies in most advertisement channels. However, on the search engine battlefields, SMEs can continuously optimize their websites to the first page of Google with the right approach. And more importantly, it’s a relatively low-budget marketing funnel affordable for most SMEs.

How should an overseas company start a Cantonese SEO localization strategy for the Hong Kong market?

The ultimate goal of localizing your website’s content in Cantonese is to make your conversion funnel work in the Hong Kong market.

The first step of localizing a website is translating all the content into the local language. Secondly, foreign businesses will have to proceed with localized SEO strategies like building local backlinks, getting listed on Google My Business and local yellow pages, gaining local media exposure, etc.

But a successful SEO localization strategy involves much more than translating a website’s content and making your content loved by Google’s algorithm. You will have to adapt the whole website into the cultural context, which requires consideration of languages, images, interface, social media channels, local competition, payment methods, local laws, business habits and much more.

Why should you hire a Hong Kong SEO freelancer instead of an SEO agency?

A large or middle-size Hong Kong SEO company or digital agency consists of managers and junior marketers, sometimes even outsourcing their work to a third-party vendor. They are efficient in the division of labor, but you never know who is working on your project.

If you work with me, you work with a Hong Kong SEO freelance expert with a trackable record in achieving brand content marketing goals.
