Translation into Turkish can also be interesting
Of all the languages, why should you have your online shop translated into Turkish?
Things are often bought online in Turkey. 50% of Turkish people buy a product online at least once a month with a smartphone or other mobile device.
Buying items of clothing and sports goods is particularly popular in Turkey, followed closely by electronic devices and household goods. Travel and holiday accommodation are also often purchased online.
Websites in their native language are more convincing
A survey of online shoppers from non-English speaking countries, including those from Turkey, revealed the following: 75% of the respondents said they want to buy products in their native language, 30% never buy from English-only websites, regardless of their level of English and 29% rarely do. In the automotive and financial sectors in particular, shoppers value receiving information in their own language.
You’re sure to profit, then, from the buying habits of potential customers from Turkey and in making it possible for them to shop in Turkish in your online shop. Product descriptions in your own native language sound much more convincing.
Of course, other factors besides language play an important role when purchasing online, such as data protection, payment and delivery options.
If you’d like success with your online shop in Turkey, you should definitely offer Visa and MasterCard as payment options, as these are often used by Turkish customers.
