Share
Are you in doubt whether to expand your site abroad? In this blog post you will read about the many advantages that expanding can offer. With an ever-growing international e-commerce market, there are many opportunities for Dutch webshops, because Europeans are increasingly buying cross border.
Before making the choice, it is important to understand the buying behavior of the foreign customer. Each year, PostNL participates in the Crossborder e-commerce shopper survey conducted by the International Postal Cooperation (IPC). From this comes interesting figures about the European online shopper. 13% of visitors to Dutch online stores come from abroad. This growth is expected to continue: in 10 years, the laws and regulations will be much more harmonized and focused on cross-border business, making ordering something abroad even easier and faster. It is therefore definitely worthwhile to take the step to sell abroad with your webshop. This can of course be done by hiring a translator, having all your content translated, placing it on a newly created site, and translating it every time new content is added. However, Clonable offers a cheaper and faster way!
