Regional Bot Selective Indexing
Fine-tune which sections of your cross-border e-commerce site should be ingested by regional LLM crawlers (e.g., for specific market entry analysis).
User-agent: RegionalBot_[CountryCode] Allow: /[country_code]/products/ Allow: /[country_code]/shipping-info/ Disallow: /[country_code]/checkout/
Verify your crawler permissions using a geo-IP simulating bot tester.
Monitor crawl frequency in your server logs, segmenting by region, to ensure regional bots are hitting the correct localized nodes.

Structured Data for International Product Attributes
Leverage schema.org markup to help LLM scrapers understand the nuances of your international product listings, including regional pricing, availability, and compliance.
Wrap your main product listings in 'Product' schema, specifying 'offers' with 'priceCurrency' and 'price' for each target market.
Use 'InternationalShippingService' schema to detail available shipping methods, costs, and estimated delivery times per region.
Ensure all product variations (size, color) are accurately represented using 'itemAvailability' and 'sku' within the Product schema for each locale.

Localized Content Chunking for RAG
Structure your cross-border content (product descriptions, policy pages) so it can be easily 'Chucked' by Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for accurate, localized AI responses.
Keep product-specific information and regional policy details within distinct, logically grouped content blocks (e.g., under 500 words).
Avoid 'floating' context; clearly state the region or product the information pertains to in each section summary or heading.
Eliminate ambiguous pronouns and terms. Replace 'it' or 'this' with the specific product name, currency, or policy (e.g., 'UK VAT regulations', 'USD pricing').
