## Implementation Plan

### Phase 1: Fix DNS/Content for Broken Domains
1. quixzoom.de → Setup Route53 + S3/CloudFront
2. quixzoom.fr → Setup Route53 + S3/CloudFront
3. quixzoom.in → Setup Route53 + S3/CloudFront
4. quixzoom.be → Setup Route53 + S3/CloudFront
5. quixzoom.ch → Fix content (DNS works, 404)
6. quixzoom.dk → Fix content (DNS works, 404)
7. quixzoom.fi → Fix content (DNS works, 404)
8. quixzoom.es → Fix content (DNS works, 404)

### Phase 2: Build Multi-Language Corporate Site
- Single codebase on quixzoom.com
- Locale-based routing (/en/, /sv/, /de/, etc.)
- Shared components, localized content
- Consistent footer across all locales

### Phase 3: Update All Footers
- Show ALL active markets
- Show "Coming soon" for planned markets
- Language selector + Region selector
- Consistent across all domains

### Phase 4: Regional Domain Strategy
- Decide: keep regional domains or redirect all to .com?
- Microsoft redirects all to microsoft.com/en-us/, etc.
- Apple keeps regional domains (apple.se, apple.co.uk)
- Decision needed from Erik/Johan
