The UOL Host, partner for those looking to start or leverage an online business in Brazil, has just entered into a strategic partnership with the HubLocal, Local Marketing and Local SEO platform, with more than 20,000 customers. From the integration of business solutions, customers will have access to advanced Local SEO features, artificial intelligence applied to digital presence and hosting tools, all in a unified and scalable way. 

In a scenario where being present in the digital environment is no longer an option and has become a necessity, the numbers speak for themselves. About 46% of Google searches are local and 85% of consumers search online before buying in physical stores. In addition, 97% of people consider online information essential to trust a local business and 60% even contact directly by search results. 

“Our mission with this partnership is to empower entrepreneurs to be easily found by their customers, from online search to conversion. With HubLocal technology and the strength of our portfolio, we deliver a complete and scalable solution for those who want to grow truly. The partnership comes with an ambitious goal: to impact more than 1 million companies by 2028”, says Ricardo Leite, Director of UOL Host. 

From this integration, UOL Host customers will have access to HubLocal's advanced SEO and artificial intelligence tools for Local Positioning, while HubLocal customers will also be able to hire the robust UOL Host portfolio in one place (Site Builder, VirtUOL Store, Email Pro Premium and UOL Ads).  

Among the features offered by HubLocal, we highlight the automatic updating of data on platforms such as Google Business Profile, Bing Places for business, Apple Business Connect and Facebook Places; the centralized management of evaluations with automated responses via AI; the mass publication of offers and events; intelligent reports in real time; and specialized technical consulting. All this supported by local positioning AI, exclusive HubLocal technology that measures digital visibility, suggests improvements and facilitates multichannel management.  

The technology also enables unified management of digital presence across multiple channels, including search engines (Google, Bing, Yelp), geolocation (Google Maps, Apple Maps, Google Company Profile), social networks (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Foursquare), and voice search platforms such as Amazon Alexa. 

“A every day it becomes more evident that the future of local businesses is in digital visibility. Our partnership with UOL Host allows us to accelerate this movement, bringing the technology and intelligence needed to millions of entrepreneurs. More than integrating portfolios, we have united with the same purpose of strengthening the ecosystem of small and medium businesses in Brazil and helping them thrive in the digital era”, says Felipe Caezar, CEO of HubLocal.  

Another difference is in the use of artificial intelligence through the HubNometer, exclusive system of HubLocal.The tool offers recommendations for improvements based on data, performance thermometer, mass editions and monitoring of evaluations with automated responses.The goal is to optimize digital management and allow the entrepreneur to focus his efforts on business growth. 

“The entrepreneur who is not found online loses customers every day. This partnership delivers the most complete in local solutions, with usability, intelligence and support to facilitate management from the beginning, accelerate digitization, increase visibility and boost sales. With this collaboration, we have expanded not only our portfolio, but also HubLocal, which now offers the business digitization solutions of UOL Host”, finishes Ricardo Leite.

Inclusion and speed: the Brazil-Asia e-commerce revolution The growth of e-commerce in Brazil has been remarkable in recent years, driven by a combination of factors such as increased internet penetration, the rise of mobile technology, and a growing middle class with greater purchasing power. However, one of the most exciting developments in this sector is the burgeoning trade relationship between Brazil and Asia, particularly China. **Inclusion: Bridging the Digital Divide** One of the key aspects of this revolution is the inclusion of previously underserved populations into the digital economy. In Brazil, efforts to expand internet access have been crucial. Programs aimed at providing affordable broadband and smartphones to low-income families have helped bridge the digital divide. This has not only empowered individuals but has also opened up new markets for Brazilian e-commerce companies. On the Asian side, particularly in China, the government and private sector have been proactive in ensuring that even rural areas have access to high-speed internet. This has allowed small businesses and farmers to participate in the e-commerce ecosystem, selling their products to a global audience. The result is a more inclusive economy where everyone has the opportunity to benefit from the digital revolution. **Speed: The Backbone of E-commerce** Speed is another critical factor in the Brazil-Asia e-commerce revolution. Consumers today expect fast delivery times, and companies that can meet these expectations are more likely to succeed. In this regard, both Brazil and Asia have made significant investments in logistics and infrastructure. In Brazil, the expansion of logistics networks and the development of efficient delivery systems have been essential. Companies like Mercado Livre and Magazine Luiza have invested heavily in their logistics capabilities to ensure that customers receive their orders quickly. Additionally, the use of technology such as drones and automated warehouses has further enhanced delivery speeds. In Asia, particularly China, the e-commerce giant Alibaba has set the standard for speed and efficiency. With its Cainiao Network, Alibaba has created a sophisticated logistics ecosystem that includes smart warehouses, automated sorting systems, and a vast network of delivery partners. This has allowed Alibaba to offer same-day delivery in many cities, setting a high bar for the industry. **The Brazil-Asia Trade Relationship** The trade relationship between Brazil and Asia, especially China, has been a significant driver of this e-commerce revolution. Brazil’s abundant natural resources and agricultural products are in high demand in Asia, while Asian technology and manufacturing expertise have found a ready market in Brazil. E-commerce platforms have facilitated this trade by providing a seamless way for businesses to connect with international customers. Brazilian companies can now sell their products to Asian consumers with relative ease, thanks to platforms like Alibaba’s AliExpress and Mercado Livre’s global marketplace. Similarly, Asian consumers can access a wide range of Brazilian products, from coffee and meat to fashion and electronics. **Challenges and Opportunities** While the Brazil-Asia e-commerce revolution presents numerous opportunities, it also comes with its set of challenges. One of the main challenges is ensuring that the benefits of this revolution are distributed equitably. There is a risk that only large companies and urban areas will reap the rewards, leaving behind smaller businesses and rural communities. Another challenge is the need for robust cybersecurity measures. As e-commerce grows, so does the risk of cyber attacks and data breaches. Both Brazil and Asia need to invest in cybersecurity infrastructure to protect consumers and businesses from these threats. **Conclusion** The Brazil-Asia e-commerce revolution is a testament to the power of technology and globalization. By focusing on inclusion and speed, both regions are creating a more connected and prosperous world. As this trade relationship continues to grow, it will undoubtedly bring more opportunities and challenges, but the potential benefits for both Brazil and Asia are immense.
