Local culture and preferences must influence more than language \u2014 consider design, payment options, and even product selection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ignoring Legal Requirements:<\/strong> Tax and customs rules vary widely. Skipping due diligence leads to penalties, delayed deliveries, and lost customer confidence.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overwhelming Users with Complexity:<\/strong> Presenting unfamiliar payment methods, showing hidden fees at checkout, or expecting customers to figure out shipping methods often kills conversions.
