United Kingdom-specific requirements to plan for

Projects for businesses in the United Kingdom have to work for local customers and local rules. These points are planned from the first milestone:

  • Google is the main search engine in the United Kingdom; plan content in English and consider a .uk / .co.uk domain where it helps.
  • Channels that matter most in the United Kingdom: LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and WhatsApp.
