Ok we seem to be meeting our self set deadlines.
The Japan Geo team has finished phase 1 of Our Los Angeles site.
ロサンゼルス.jp is live we kept the designs same for now, as our main focus is fixing technology to work well with IDNs. Then we can concentrate on making the sites a bit more unique. We also emphasize on what content we put in the site that appeals to our target users. We are also choosing destinations that interest ourselves so that we learn a little bit more about the cities we write the content for. Even being a Boston native when I do the Boston site I’m sure to get more familiar with the hometown I left.
Anyway on to the next travel destination. Great work Japan Geo Team.
It’s the team that makes the difference. We are trying to create long term ventures.
I hope that others following the blog take action too.
Why did you bother with “・” in the development
All of the articles are written by the Japan team members & they make the decision of what is better for articles to be easier to read for our target Japanese users. Please don’t apply strategy for Titles of Articles to domaining strategies.
So it’s for Usability only.
“・” not .
I meant in the /keyword・keyword/ on the los angeles idn site
example in your
http://ロサンゼ.jp/ルス・ルス .jp
You mean in the URLs
ロサンゼルス.jp/レストラン/チーズ・ケーキ・ファクトリー.html
For now we are keeping the URLs the same at the content titles. For us it’s not keyword・keyword. We think of it as just a title.
