I know in in Japan often people in the way people search for products they often want more visual graphs, graphics and such.
And when I first started doing SEO or S um localization, which then turned into SEO, we weren't able to create these unique graphs
like um you know plotting cost versus performance say of uh uh of servers.
We weren't able to produce this this is what the Japanese were used to seeing in magazines when they're buying or you know brochures you're buying a c a camera, a computer or a server, you could actually see these visual graphics.
We just weren't able to do this.

Yeah, and sometimes you end up with
Teams finding creative ways where they the a local team will just go off on its own, create a separate domain and start publishing there and interlink that domain with the other domain.

Often they would have a turnaround of like um for deals that are weekly deals, you that for computers and laptops and so forth.
You have two or three days to get your stuff live before the deal starts.

You know, there's there was actually almost no content, a lot of the stuff that was being published.
But it was just the way it was just the move fast and break things, I guess, initiative that the I think the Chinese invented.
I Mark Zuckerberg would like to think that he came up with that or whatever, whoever marks.
Getting that from but the Chinese definitely
