How can we target specific countries for SEO? Is setting up Shopify Markets, with language translation, currency, etc. good enough?

That sounds like a good start, yes. Those are the biggies.

To really target specific countries:

  • Create content specific to that market
  • Get backlinks from websites in that country
  • Follow local shopping patterns (like payment preferences)
