Is a Google Translate widget good enough for a Spanish website?
Not if you want Spanish-speaking customers to find you. A widget translates the page in the visitor's browser, so there are no Spanish pages for search engines to index, and the automatic translation is not checked. Real Spanish pages on their own URLs can rank in Spanish searches and read the way you intend.
Will adding Spanish pages hurt my English SEO?
Not when it is set up correctly. Each language gets its own URLs and hreflang tags that tell search engines the pages are translations of each other, not duplicates. We plan the structure so the English pages that already rank stay where they are.
Who does the translation?
We draft the translation with professional translation tools, then a fluent speaker you trust reviews it before launch. Many clients have bilingual staff who know their customers' words best. For legal, medical or regulated copy, that review is required, and you approve every page that goes public.
Can you add Spanish to my existing website?
Often, yes. It depends on how the current site is built. Some platforms handle a second language cleanly, and some make it painful enough that a rebuild costs less in the long run. We tell you which after the free site review.
Which languages can you build?
We have built English and Spanish sites and an English, Spanish and Haitian Creole site. The structure works the same for any language. What changes is who reviews the translation, so we plan that with you up front.
How much does a bilingual website cost?
Website builds are priced by the page, starting from $1,021 for a new site, and you can estimate one on our website calculator. Added languages depend on how many pages need translating and how they will be reviewed, so we quote them with your scope after the free review.
