Multi-language websites

For some organisations, multilingual content is a legal requirement – many governments mandate a native language version of business websites. Closer to home, presenting your website in multiple languages makes valuable services accessible to a wider local audience.

We offer two proven approaches to creating multi-language WordPress websites.

1. Neural Machine Translation (NMT) uses artificial neural networks to translate words in the context of the full sentence, rather than in isolation. This approach, adopted by Google in 2016, produces natural-sounding translations that preserve tone, pace, and flow.

NMT is:

  • Extremely reliable
  • Fast to deploy
  • Affordable for large-scale rollouts
  • With over 100 languages available on installation, you can begin speaking to your customers in their own language the same day.

2. The WordPress Multilingual Plug-in creates a duplicate of every page in your chosen target languages. Each page is fully editable, allowing territory-specific content and layout. This approach is ideal for businesses with established international divisions or customer bases, where precision and localisation are key.

You can work with your own translators or choose from our vetted network of professionals to ensure quality and cultural accuracy.
