Why GEO-Targeting Alone Won't Unlock Web 3.0 Success: Forget about English-Speaking Markets

Let’s be honest: every crypto project wants to get as many people on board as possible. Even yours, right? They want the whole world to know about them and join in on the fun. Now, when you're promoting your Web 3.0 project, it's totally normal to think about the big shots like the USA, UK, and whatnot. But… let's take a moment to question that strategy: isn’t that market too tight to jump into tops? I mean, thousands of projects that already have established their names are not going down any time soon, and to join that elite club isn’t a piece of cake.

What is Wrong with English-speaking GEO?

The English-speaking world already has a strong presence in the crypto space, with its own set of rules and regulations. On the other hand, other regions are still in the process of developing, and they've shown great potential that holds even more promise for crypto projects.

Curious, huh? Let’s dive into the topic and figure out how to replace the hype with a deliberate choice that will make your project a winner.

Who Else Is on the Crypto Map:

• Prepare to be surprised: according to the crypto adoption index, there is only one (!) English-speaking audience in the top 10 – the U.S. However, there is also:

• Vietnam,Philippines, Ukraine, India, Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand.

None of them is English-speaking, right? Now, when you understand that there are regions that can literally offer you better options on each metric, the only question is WHAT those GEOs are? The answer though isn’t really great: it depends. GEO should be chosen based on your project’s needs. In other words, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to this riddle. The only way to actually select a suitable Geo for your project is to find out what is going on in a particular crypto landscape. Then analyze whether your project is fitting into their trends, pains, and demands.

Let's take a strategic approach to determine the ideal GEO for your product. Our first question to ponder is:

• Does your product have a demand in a specific region? To find out that, you need to undertake the following steps:

1. Describe your target audience;
2. Find the top 20 popular bloggers/media and analyse what are the main topics in the country;
3. If the product is a niche, then just research how much content there is on that/similar topic;
4. Conduct keyword research.
   

• Now it's time to assess whether you have the necessary resources to support the chosen GEO that aligns with your project. Here's what you need to consider:

1. You already have users or a community;
2. Partnerships, including on a GEO you want to penetrate;
3. Local funds that can connect you with other projects through their network.

If you don’t have any of the previous points, it will be helpful if there is someone who can consult you about a GEO. By the way, you can always ask us about that — we have expertise in helping businesses penetrate Turkish and Ukrainian markets, so we are capable of bringing you not only advice but tangible results. Think about it.

Three Horseman of Successful GEO Expansion: Research, Insights, and Local Expertise:

• Analyse the GEO presence of similar or competing products. If you discover that they are absent in the GEO you have initially chosen, it could indicate that the selected GEO might not be the best fit for your product. What should you do then? Just explore alternative GEO options that align more closely with your objectives. Easy.

• Next, it's time to leverage retrospective data to assess the organic traffic your product has generated. This retrospective analysis will provide valuable information about the interest and engagement levels in different GEOs. Pros? You will be able to identify potential opportunities or challenges.

1. When you're trying to enter a new GEO, it can be tricky to figure out how things work in that specific location. That's where local representatives come in handy. They have the knowledge and experience of the local market, so they can give you beneficial insights and advice.
2. Engage in customer development activities with local crypto enthusiasts. Their first-hand experiences and feedback can offer unique perspectives and help you tailor your product to the preferences and needs of the target audience in the new GEO.

• Now that you've collected all the important data and insights we discussed earlier, it's time to jump into testing campaigns. Approach this stage with a careful eye on your budget, making sure to use cost-effective strategies that make the most of your resources. Remember, what worked in other GEOs may not work the same way in your new target GEO. So, be ready to adapt and experiment to find the best approach that suits your new audience.
