|
||||
* Focusing on information localization
|
||||
* Building partnerships with official agencies
|
||||
|
||||
Key approaches included:
|
||||
* Working with [Saudi Arabia's best marketing firm](http://ayase0892.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-3409.html) native speakers to identify real query patterns
|
||||
* Examining regional rivals for keyword insights
|
||||
* Developing a dual-language keyword matrix to capture every possible users
|
||||
* Implementing Saudi Arabic dialect rather than formal language
|
||||
|
||||
Recently, a restaurant owner in Riyadh expressed frustration that his business wasn't showing up in Google searches despite being highly rated by customers. This is a frequent issue I see with regional companies throughout the Kingdom.
|
||||
|
||||
I dedicate at least 120 minutes each week analyzing our competitors':
|
||||
* Online organization and UX
|
||||
* Blog posts and posting schedule
|
||||
* Online platforms presence
|
||||
* Client testimonials and evaluations
|
||||
* SEO tactics and rankings
|
||||
|
||||
Through extensive testing for a food delivery client, we discovered that promotions shown between 9-11 PM dramatically surpassed those shown during typical optimal periods, generating one hundred sixty-three percent higher conversion rates.
|
||||
|
||||
Last month, a apparel company contacted me after spending over 150,000 SAR on platform promotion with disappointing results. After redesigning their campaign, we achieved a 631% growth in advertising efficiency.
|
||||
|
||||
As someone who has created over 30 Arabic websites in the past five years, I can tell you that applying Western UX principles to Arabic interfaces falls short. The unique characteristics of Arabic language and Saudi user expectations require a totally unique approach.
|
||||
|
||||
Effective approaches included:
|
||||
* Showcasing family values rather than personal benefits
|
||||
* Including modest spiritual connections where relevant
|
||||
* Modifying offer terminology to match Saudi social expectations
|
||||
* Producing distinct ad variations for diverse locations within the Kingdom
|
||||
|
||||
I use a basic document to track our competition's rates modifications on a regular basis. This recently enabled us to:
|
||||
* Spot seasonal promotion cycles
|
||||
* Notice special offer strategies
|
||||
* Grasp their cost structure
|
||||
|
||||
If you're creating or redesigning a website for the Saudi market, I advise consulting professionals who truly understand the complexities of Arabic user experience rather than just converting Western interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
Recently, I observed as three similar businesses spent significantly into developing their business on a particular social media platform. Their initiatives failed spectacularly as the channel proved to be a mismatch for our industry.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional timing findings included:
|
||||
* Decreased competition during religious periods with steady conversion rates
|
||||
* Greater response on Fridays and Saturdays notably after evening prayers
|
||||
* Seasonal variations demanding investment changes during Ramadan
|
||||
* Academic calendar influences on certain categories
|
||||
|
||||
Start by mapping ALL your competitors – not just the obvious ones. During our investigation, we found that our biggest competitor wasn't the famous brand we were watching, [competitive landscape analysis](https://Adremcareers.com/employer/%D8%AB%D8%B1%D9%8A-%D8%B3%D9%83%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%8A-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%85%D9%84%D9%83%D8%A9/) but a recent company with an novel approach.
|
||||
|
||||
For a hospitality brand, we discovered that literal conversion of their foreign queries produced extremely wasteful investment. After executing a regionally-specific query strategy, their CPA dropped by seventy-three percent.
|
||||
|
||||
* Moved product images to the left portion, with product information and buy buttons on the right
|
||||
* Adjusted the photo slider to move from right to left
|
||||
* Added a custom Arabic text style that maintained clarity at various scales
|
||||
|
||||
Essential features included:
|
||||
* Mobile-first creative styles
|
||||
* Touch-to-contact extensions for voice-preferred customers
|
||||
* Software marketing for appropriate queries
|
||||
* Platform-tailored landing pages
|
||||
|
||||
* Redesigned the data entry sequence to match right-to-left thinking processes
|
||||
* Created a Arabic-English input mechanism with smart language switching
|
||||
* Enhanced mobile interactions for right-handed Arabic input
|
||||
|
||||
Recently, I was advising a major e-commerce platform that had poured over 200,000 SAR on a impressive website that was performing terribly. The issue? They had just converted their English site without accounting for the essential design distinctions needed for Arabic users.
|
||||
|
||||
* Choose fonts specially created for Arabic digital display (like Dubai) rather than classic print fonts
|
||||
* Enlarge line height by 150-175% for improved readability
|
||||
* Set right-oriented text (never centered for main content)
|
||||
* Stay away from condensed Arabic typefaces that reduce the characteristic letter forms
|
||||
|
||||
Important elements:
|
||||
* Involving spiritual guides in evolution creation
|
||||
* Honoring prayer times in implementation programs
|
||||
* Developing traditionally respectful development activities
|
||||
* Emphasizing alignment with Saudi goals
