Option 1 (separate pages on a global domain) is usually better for SEO and easier to manage. You can use subdirectories or subdomains with hreflang tags to target different countries. Buying country-specific domains works too, but it's more expensive and harder to scale.

A local domain is better for building trust and country-specific SEO. However, for a global presence, creating separate country-specific pages under a single domain is also effective. Decide based on your budget and goals. If you have a big brand, a country-specific domain is preferable; otherwise, a separate page on a single domain is sufficient.
Both options can work, but here's a simple breakdown:
- Creating separate pages for each country under one domain is usually the most effective and manageable approach for global growth. It simplifies your SEO strategy, keeps costs lower, and is easier to handle in the long run.
- Buy domains in each country might be better for local credibility because people in those countries may trust a local domain more. However, managing multiple domains can get expensive and complex. Each country-specific domain will have its own SEO efforts and link profile.
if you're not Bill Gates' son go with option 1
By looking at your suggestion, I consider option 1 to be the best option lol.

If you want global reach then a single domain with country specific pages works best for SEO and management.
If you’re targeting specific countries heavily local domains can help with trust and rankings in those regions, but they require more effort.
It depends on your budget and long term goals.
