Optimizing Websites Globally Through Strategic Translation & Localization
Website translation and localization eliminates misunderstandings by adapting information to meet a target locale's cultural, linguistic, and business requirements. By translating your website, you enable users to access information about your company quickly and easily. By allowing your customers, partners, and employees to communicate effectively with you in international markets, the cost of doing business decreases while business results increase.
Lionbridge Website Translation capabilities include:
- Localization and adaptation of online and interactive content
- Style guide creation, terminology management, translation memory management, and optimization of machine translation output
- Localization of 2-D and 3-D graphics; Web and multimedia productions; Flash, audio and video components; Web publishing, .NET and XML publishing
- Multilingual Content Management System (CMS) connectivity
It is not enough just to have access to language translation resources. Resource management is a core competency at Lionbridge. We optimize workloads, ensure availability, track individual capabilities and error rates, and ensure consistency — not only between translators working in a single language but also across multilingual content management teams.
