The Miami market

Miami runs on presentation and languages: sites here need to look international-money polished, and bilingual English-Spanish content is baseline for most consumer categories, not optional. The real-estate-and-trade economy generates premium B2B demand, and neighborhood brands (Brickell, Coral Gables, Wynwood) function as separate search markets.
