Domains connects a website you own to your Hyperlocalise workspace. Once the hostname is verified, you can see how each market searches for your topic, where you rank, how AI engines talk about you, and how healthy your localisation is. Then you can feed what you learn back into translation. If Domains is not available in your workspace, ask your administrator or support about access. New to Domains? Follow the tutorial: from audit to verified domain.

How Domains fits together

Add a domain

There are two ways to start:
  • From a localisation audit. Select Claim this domain on the audit report, then sign in.
  • From the app. Open Domains and select Add a domain.
Setup has four steps:
  1. Domain details. Enter the root hostname without a path, such as example.com.
  2. Connect. Verify ownership with a DNS TXT record, an HTML file, or a meta tag. See verify a website domain.
  3. Research markets. Hyperlocalise recommends markets where the domain already has search signals. Each recommendation shows its strength, ranking keywords, estimated visits, and top-10 rankings. Select at least one.
  4. Project. Create a project named after the domain, attach an existing project, or leave it unassigned and decide later.
A hostname can be verified by only one organization at a time. The first organization to verify it owns it.

The domain list

Domains lists every domain you can access, with:
  • Locales: the research markets selected for the domain.
  • Keywords: ranking keywords in the captured data.
  • Traffic: estimated organic traffic.
  • Score: the localisation audit score, when an audit is attached.
Select Edit locales to change a domain’s markets.

Choose a market

Open a domain and use the locale selector in the header. The selected market applies to every research view as you move between them. An empty view means no data is saved for that market. Hyperlocalise does not fill it with another market’s data. Research results do not guarantee future rankings.

Domain views

Overview

A snapshot of the domain’s organic search presence in the selected market:
  • Ranking keywords with position, search volume, and estimated traffic.
  • Top-10 rankings.
  • Pages that rank, and how many keywords each one ranks for.
Snapshots are captured on demand. Select Refresh data to capture the market again. The capture date is shown next to the data. Estimated traffic is a DataForSEO estimate, not measured visits. Use Search Console for real clicks.

Keyword research

Find the words people in a market use for your topic. Enter a seed keyword, expand ideas, inspect search-result snapshots, and save the terms worth keeping. Saved keywords belong to the domain and market. See research keywords and track rankings.

Rank tracking

Track positions for saved keywords over time. Refresh up to 20 keywords at a time, and compare snapshots within one market.

AI visibility

See how AI answer engines mention your brand next to competitors in the selected market.
  1. Select Add competitors.
  2. Enter one brand name per line.
  3. Review Mentions by engine, with each brand’s mention count and sentiment: positive, mixed, or negative.

Prompt explorer

Ask the kind of question a buyer would ask, such as “best tools for managing translations”, and compare how each engine answers in the selected market. Enter a prompt and select Run prompt. Use the answers to see which brands and wording each market’s engines favour.

Search Console

Import the clicks, impressions, and queries Google already recorded for the domain.
  1. Select Connect Search Console, and authorize the Google account that owns the property. The connection is managed in Integrations.
  2. Pick a date range, from the last 7 days to the last 12 months.
  3. Review clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position, then switch between Queries and Pages.
The country filter follows the selected market. To see how Google last crawled a page, enter its URL under Inspect URL. The result shows the verdict, coverage, indexing state, last crawl time, and the canonical Google chose. If the view says the domain is not in Search Console, add and verify the property in Google Search Console, or reconnect with a different Google account. If it asks you to reconnect, the authorization expired.

Use research in localisation

Research is most useful when it changes what you translate and how:
  • Fix the right pages first. Combine audit findings with Search Console traffic. A failing German pricing page that gets clicks matters more than an untranslated footer link.
  • Use the market’s own words. When keyword research shows people search for a different term than your translation uses, add the approved term to the project’s glossary and language resources.
  • Brief translators. Add market context from AI visibility and prompt answers to your guidelines.
Domains does not rewrite or publish your website. Review and deliver content through your normal translation and publishing workflow.

Who can see a domain

  • Organization admins and localization managers can see every domain.
  • A member who added an unassigned domain can see it.
  • Members of the team that owns the attached project can see it.
Pending claims can be cancelled from the domain list. To move an already verified domain to another organization, contact support.
