need it is when translating your website.</p> <p><span>Why?</span> <span>It's simple: just like salespeople are paid based on the deals they close, the translators are paid based on the number of words or pages they translate.</span></p> <p>There are several online tools you can use to find the number of words your website has, and some of them are from translation agencies and even automatic

Welcome to GTranslate!</p> <p><span>As the founder of Google Language Translator <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/announcement-7/" target="_blank">Rob Myrick announced</a> nearly a week ago, Google Language Translator is now a part of GTranslate family.</span> <span>Before talking about what this basically means for you, let's briefly describe what are the core differences and similarities of two plugins.</span></p> <h3>Google Language Translator and GTranslate</h3> <p>Both are multilingual plugins which help to instantly make your websites multilingual and both are easy to install and use.</p> <p><span>Google Language Translator works like GTranslate's free plan.</span> <span>They both provide on-fly translation of your website through Google's machine translation: the website is being translated only when your visitor selects a language.</span> <span>The only difference here is in the design and default options to post Language Selectors on your website.</span></p></div><p><a href="/blog/google-language-translator-becomes-part-of-gtranslate-family">Read more...</a></p></article><article class="home-blog-listing-item"><h2

they usually imply the services provided by professional translators.</span> <span>For example, when they say "professional website translation", they mean that a translator is going to translate the website content into a language manually.</span> <span>Translators usually perform translations in 1 or 2 languages.</span> <span>Sometimes, if you are lucky enough, you will get a translation into several languages too.</span> <span>But never into a dozen languages.</span></p> <p><span>So, if you want to translate a website into say 20 languages, you might need to hire 5-6 translators if not more.</span> <span>Is this going to cost you a lot of money?</span> <span>It definitely is!</span></p></div><p><a
