Professional translation services for business

Globalization. Internationalization. Business expansion. If you’re interested in growing your business then you’ve heard this before. Expanding a business to foreign markets is not easy, but with a little work it can be done.

First thing you should think about is where you are going to expand. If your site is in English, the first option that comes to mind is Spanish territories. The best reason in choosing Spanish as your site’s next language is simply the fact that this language is the third most spoken in the world.

The next thing that comes to mind is how you are going to translate your website and business documents. This should be an easy one but unfortunately, it could be quite a challenge. Professional translation is no easy task and if you choose price over quality the whole thing can turn against you as there is nothing worse than having bad translation on your site.

There are a plethora of services offering Spanish translation, all you have to do is choose the best professional translation services and go with that. It doesn’t have to be the most expensive service; it only needs to provide quality output. If you decide to go with Wapa Translations, you will get quality translation and localization services at affordable prices.

Once you’ve decided which service to use, get in touch with one of their project managers. Give them your time line, budget, theme, content, target audience, product range and web designing ideas. Once you have completed your presentation, you can ask them to tell you what they can offer you. If they are a professional translation service they will give you a quote containing everything that needs to be done and how much would that cost. Make sure you include your business documents such as contracts, user manuals, marketing documents and everything else you need to translate. This will ensure a proper quote is received and will probably give you a volume discount.

In theory, once you’ve accepted the quote, they should start working on your site. If things are moving fast with your project then everything is fine. If there are delays, this probably means they don’t have enough translators to assign on your job. This is yet another reason you should go with professional translation services.

Always keep in touch with the project manager assigned to your project. Make sure you check everything has been translated, including meta tags of every page (title, meta description, meta keywords). A basic keyword research is also recommended and at least light SEO optimization.

If you go with Wapa Translations, you will get all the above: professional translation services, localization, keyword research and optimization, all at an affordable price.
