Website translation
The translation of websites from English to German is a speciality of GLOCAFY.
This requires good knowledge, not only of translation, but also IT and web technology and IT tools, so that the easiest way for creating the new German website can be identified. Depending on website platform and client setup, the best approach will vary and Susanne will work with clients to find the best solution, leveraging her IT skills to find the most suitable solution.
SEO translation of website content
A key part of website translation is SEO translation of website content. This means that as part of the translation, it is ensured that the focused keyword phrases for each web page are integrated into the visible web page content as well as meta data. This is very important in order to ensure optimal on page SEO of the website.
Software translation
Another important area for translation is software translation and software localisation. This is important, if you sell software into the German market. In this case, it is important that the user interface and any supporting documentation is also translated and localised for the German market.
Document translation
In addition to the very specialised translation services for websites, GLOCAFY also offers more traditional text and document translation. Typical requirements might be translation of contracts, brochures, handbooks, instruction manuals etc.
For text translation that is very marketing focused, we recommend transcreation, i.e. a re-creation of the message as opposed to a more literal translation of the words, which in a marketing context is usually more appropriate and effective.
