Building for the South Africa market
Data costs matter here, so we keep pages light and aggressively optimise images for mobile networks.
Practically, that shapes how we build: checkout flows use the gateways your customers already trust (PayFast, Yoco, Stripe, Ozow), prices and dates render in South Africa formats, and the SEO plan targets South Africa search results rather than a generic global audience. Where you serve specific cities โ Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria โ we build a page for each one with content written for that market.
