Website localization
A localization service quotes you per word, per market, per round of review. Proxylang is the tool underneath that work: it localizes your existing site into 68+ languages, and hands you the controls for everything a machine should not decide on its own.
Free for your first 2,000 words. No card, no sales call.
Localization is not one job. These are its parts, split by who should be doing each one.
| Part | Handled for you | Under your control |
|---|---|---|
| Page text | Every visible string is translated with the whole page as context, so a word is rendered the way its sentence uses it. | Any string can be corrected in the dashboard, and your version is what visitors see from then on. |
| Brand and product terms | Terms you pin are carried through untouched in every language, including inside longer sentences. | You build the glossary. It is the single most useful thing to set up before launching a language. |
| Metadata and alt text | Meta titles, meta descriptions, link titles, form labels and image alt text are all translated, not just the body copy. | Override any translated title or description per language when the automatic one is not the one you want to rank with. |
| Right-to-left languages | Arabic, Hebrew, Persian and Urdu are laid out right-to-left rather than having their text swapped inside a left-to-right layout. | Check your own custom components. Anything positioned with fixed pixel offsets is worth a look after you switch a language on. |
| Search visibility per market | Each language gets its own indexable URL, matching hreflang tags, and its own entries in the sitemap, from the Start plan. | Submit the sitemap in each market’s search console. Naver in particular needs a guided one-time setup. |
| Text inside images | Alt text is translated for every image automatically. | Text painted into the image itself is translated for the images you opt in, one attribute per image, and cached per language after that. |
Four things a localization agency sells that no translation layer should claim, ours included.
Numbers in your page are preserved exactly, not recalculated. If you want to sell in local currency, that belongs in your store or billing system, and Proxylang will translate whatever it outputs.
German runs roughly a third longer than English and Japanese runs shorter. We do not redesign your components to absorb that, and we do not commission market-specific photography. Both are design work.
Terms, privacy notices and anything with regulatory weight are translated accurately, but an accurate translation is not a legal review for that market. Have a person sign those off.
La traducción es lo suficientemente buena para publicar y es coherente. No es un redactor local reescribiendo su posicionamiento para esa cultura. Si un mercado es lo suficientemente importante, contrate a uno y pegue su redacción como una regla de sustitución.
La forma práctica en la que la mayoría de los equipos se deciden: pasar cada idioma por la herramienta, observar qué mercados envían tráfico realmente y luego invertir dinero en humanos para los dos que lo hagan. Vea cómo rinde cada idioma en el aspecto del SEO multilingüe y cómo las páginas llegan a los motores de búsqueda en primer lugar a través de la página de proxy de traducción.
La localización de sitios web consiste en adaptar un sitio para que funcione en un mercado, no solo en traducir las palabras que contiene. Abarca el texto, los metadatos que leen los motores de búsqueda, la dirección de lectura para idiomas como el árabe y el hebreo, los términos que nunca quiere que cambien y el hecho de dar a cada idioma su propia dirección para que pueda ser encontrado. La traducción es una parte de la localización; un sitio localizado es aquel con el que un visitante de ese mercado no tiene que lidiar.
