Which Spanish?
One language, three different markets.
Vocabulary, forms of address and legal requirements depend on the target market.
es-ES
Spain
One of the Eurozone’s major economies and a key trading partner of Türkiye. Business buyers expect a formal yet warm tone.

- Neutral Spanish — Language that avoids country-specific idioms.
- Local trust signals — US address, phone and time zone.
- Mobile first — Most searches and purchases happen on phones.

FAQ
Questions about Spanish websites
Can’t find what you’re looking for? Write to us — we usually reply the same day.
Is one site enough for Spain and Latin America?
A single version can work to start; if you seriously target both, we recommend separate es-ES and es-419 content.
Do you use machine translation?
No. Content is rewritten based on keyword research for the target market and reviewed by our team in Spain.
.es domain or a subfolder?
For most brands a subfolder like site.com/es/ is enough and easier to manage.
