Multilingualism of your website

Would you like to display your WordPress website in multiple languages for your international visitors and customers? Do you want to be able to switch languages for each page with a single click?

I integrate the technical language switching - also for multiple languages - into your WordPress site. You provide the content and translations. As a starting point, an automated translation can be integrated using the service DeepL, which has now reached a very high level of quality. The translation by native speakers is of course of even higher quality.

Why multilingualism is important

In a globalised world, it is crucial for companies to address an international audience. Multilingual websites open up new markets and allow you to reach a wider audience. Here are some of the key reasons why you should make your website multilingual:

• Increased range:
  • With a multilingual website, you can reach people from different countries, which leads to more traffic and potential customers.
• Improved user experience:
  • Your visitors feel more comfortable and understood when they can read content in their native language.
• Competitive advantage:
  • A multilingual website sets you apart from competitors that are only available in one language.
• Better SEO:
  • Multilingual websites rank better in international search engines, which leads to higher visibility.

Integration of multilingualism into your WordPress website

TranslatePress: The perfect tool

I use the TranslatePress Personal plugin to integrate multilingual management. TranslatePress is a professional translation plugin that offers numerous advantages:

• User friendliness:
  • Changes can be made directly in the front end of the page, which makes operation extremely intuitive.
• Comprehensive support:
  • TranslatePress supports all major languages and is flexible enough to fulfil even complex translation requirements.
• Automatic and manual translation:
  • You can choose between automated translation (e.g. with DeepL) and manual translation by native speakers.

The steps to integration

1. Installation and setup of the plugin:
   • I install and configure TranslatePress on your WordPress website. This includes the basic settings and the selection of the desired languages.
2. Deposit of the translations:
   • The translations are stored via the plugin editor. You provide the content and translations, and I take care of the technical implementation.
3. Integration of the language switch:
   • The language switcher is integrated in a prominent position on your website so that your visitors can easily switch between languages.
4. Optional automated translation:
   • On request, I can integrate an automated translation with DeepL. This is particularly useful if you need a first version of the translations quickly.

Advantages of a professional translation

While automated translations have now reached a fairly high level of quality, translation by native speakers is still superior. A professional translation agency can ensure that the nuances and cultural differences are correctly rendered. If you need a translation agency, I will be happy to make recommendations.
