McKinsey's "2024 Global Brand Digitalization Report" indicates that international brands with independent websites enjoy 2.8 times higher user loyalty and an average 45% increase in brand premium. A recent survey by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade shows that companies expanding overseas through independent websites increase brand awareness 60% faster than platform sellers, and their customer lifetime value is three times higher. Analysis by the World E-Commerce Forum emphasizes that independent websites offer irreplaceable advantages in terms of brand autonomy, data asset accumulation, and user experience control, making them a strategic infrastructure for brand internationalization.

Three major international bottlenecks of the platform model

1. Brand value dilution

• Homogeneous display leads to decreased recognition (a case study by the China Brand Research Institute shows a 70% loss of premium space)
• Difficulty in establishing a complete brand narrative

2. User asset loss

• The platform data is closed and cannot be accumulated (a certain home appliance brand’s tens of millions of traffic cannot be converted)
• Secondary reach costs remain high

3. Limited experience standards

• Unable to achieve deep localization adaptation (a certain beauty brand has a return rate as high as 40%)
• Increased risk of cultural conflict

Five international advantages of independent stations

1. Brand narrative integrity

• Full-dimensional value delivery (users spend 8 minutes on a new energy brand’s official website)
• Global visual system

2. User Asset Privatization

• First-party data accumulation (a smart hardware brand has a repurchase rate of 65%)
• Precision remarketing system

3. Localized in-depth operations

• Cultural adaptation solutions (a maternity and baby brand achieved 300% growth in emerging markets)
• Regional exclusive content strategy

4. Pricing autonomy

• Regionally differentiated pricing
• Value Marketing Space

5. Freedom of Ecosystem Integration

• Payment logistics customization
• Seamless integration of marketing tools
