Tres modelos de precios, tres facturas diferentes
Comparing quotes across these models is the part people get wrong. They do not charge for the same thing.
Pagar a una agencia por palabra
- What you are billed for
- A rate per source word, per target language, plus project management and a review round. Quoted per project.
- How it scales
- Linearly, and then again every time you publish. A page rewritten in March is a new invoice in March.
- When it is the right call
- One or two markets where the copy has to be rewritten rather than translated, and where the wording carries real commercial weight.
- What to check in the quote
- The quote covers the pages in the brief. Everything published afterwards — blog posts, new products, updated policies — is out of scope and quietly drifts back into your source language.
Crear un segundo sitio por cada idioma
- What you are billed for
- Design and development time, then a second content system to keep populated, then hosting for each.
- How it scales
- Worst of the three. Every language multiplies the maintenance, not just the build.
- When it is the right call
- Markets where the offering itself is genuinely different — different products, different pricing, different legal entity.
- What to check in the quote
- The build is the small part. The recurring cost is that every change now has to be made two, three or five times, by somebody who reads each language.
Implementar una capa de traducción frente a su sitio
- What you are billed for
- A monthly subscription based on how much content you translate and how many languages you serve.
- How it scales
- With content volume, not with page count or publishing frequency. New pages translate themselves.
- When it is the right call
- Any number of markets where the offering is the same and the site is the same, which is most businesses going international for the first time.
- What to check in the quote
- Read how words are metered. Some services re-count the same words every month; on Proxylang a translated word is stored permanently and paid for once.
Lo que cuesta aquí
Words are counted once. A word you translated last year is still served this year without being metered again.

Not sure how many words your site has? The word counter gives you the figure, and it is the same figure every per-word quote you receive will be calculated from. The full plan list goes beyond the four above.
Preguntas sobre costes
Depende totalmente de cuál de los tres modelos elija. Una agencia cobra por palabra de origen por idioma, por lo que el coste escala con el número de páginas y se repite cada vez que publica. Crear un sitio independiente por idioma requiere tiempo de desarrollo inicial y multiplica su mantenimiento para siempre. Una capa de traducción es una suscripción mensual basada en el volumen de contenido: Proxylang es gratuito para sus primeras 2.000 palabras, cuesta 15 $ al mes por 20.000 palabras en 2 idiomas y 39 $ al mes por 100.000 palabras en 3 idiomas.
