You don't get a second chance to make a first impression

A global gateway is the initial point of contact between your website and the world -- it is, in effect, a web user's first impression. To truly welcome visitors to your web site, you'll need a welcoming global gateway.

As noted in The 2016 Web Globalization Report Card, the average number of languages supported by the leading global brands is now 30.

While web globalization opens your website to the world, it also opens you up to a number of new challenges, namely how to ensure that visitors, no matter what language they speak, can find their local content. This is why the global gateway is so important. Well executed, the global gateway functions like a multilingual tour guide, helping people find exactly where they need to go.
