The localization angle for SEO is genuinely underused. Most builders optimize for English first and treat other languages as afterthought. What was the biggest technical challenge in scaling to multiple languages?

Thanks! One of the biggest challenges was making localized pages feel genuinely unique instead of just translated copies. I also had to manage localized SEO metadata, internal linking, and keep page speed fast across all pages. Another interesting part was that users from different countries behaved very differently, so optimizing the experience and reducing friction for each audience became just as important as the language itself.
The behavioral differences by country is the most interesting insight here — it means localization isn't just translation, it's a completely different UX problem per market. Did you find that certain languages converted significantly better than others, or was it more about volume?
