When you’re embarking on the process of translating your website into another language, or into multiple languages, you want to ensure that your message is not lost in that translation. Machine translation is likely to mangle your content, and so most companies use human translators. But even a professional translator fluent in both source and target languages might not be enough to spark that crucial connection that creates loyal customers and brand evangelists.Communicating effectively with a customer base in a different culture, capturing interest, igniting passion and motivating them to interact with your brand requires a deep cultural understanding and an ability to use language to connect and call to action. Website localisation is the process of adapting your content so that it truly speaks to a new audience, making use of local language cues, cultural knowledge and audience expectations. Absolute Translations provides a comprehensive website localisation service, using a team of experienced localisation specialists who are immersed in the culture of your target market and have years of experience translating passion and vision, not just words

When you, or your copywriters or marketing team, write content for your brand, you use a whole arsenal of powerful linguistic tools to connect with a target audience. Tone, style, humour, idioms, cultural references are all used to give your words maximum impact, provoking emotion and motivating people to take action. But when those exact words are translated to another language, that power may be lost. An idiom doesn’t translate; the tone hits the wrong note in a different culture; the reference is lost on your new audience. This is when website localisation is a better option than straight translation; your localisation specialist will translate not just the meaning of your copy, but the nuance too. If an idiom doesn’t translate, they’ll find an alternative. If the tone needs adjusting, they’ll use their extensive knowledge of the local market to get it just right.
When your website launches in a new language and a new market, you’re competing with other websites written in the local language. When even small translation errors can be distracting or even amusing to a native-speaking audience, this kind of error can distort your message. Our website localisation specialists have at least five years’ experience working on localisation projects. Your translator will be a native-speaker familiar with the culture you’re translating for and will work with you to communicate clearly and effectively with your new target market.
Absolute Translations is a member of the Association of Translation Companies, a testimony to our high professional standards. With a global network of translators and global offices in Germany, France and Spain, we can quickly connect you with a professional translator in your target market and get your localisation project underway. For more information about our website translation services, get in touch today and see how we can help you get local.
