Is it worth hiring a translation service provider? Or stick with good old Google Translate reliable enough to translate your content into multiple languages?
⠀
Do-it-yourself translation is quick and easy, especially since there are translation tools like Google Translate or Skype Translator. They seem like quick and easy options. In addition, they are usually free.
⠀
With a simple copy and paste, your newly translated content will be ready to go. You can also translate multiple languages in one sitting, which seems to save you a lot of time.
⠀
But the levels of accuracy that these tools provide can be extremely low and inconsistent for different languages.
⠀
This means that you are likely to be left with a cluttered offering of content that is hard to understand and of little value to the reader. This is not a good first impression for any newcomer who visits your site.
⠀
The details and nuances that make your brand unique must be interpreted appropriately so they can be shared and celebrated in a new region.
⠀
Additionally, there is such a thing as untranslatability.
⠀
If you use a do-it-yourself tool, you won’t be able to detect untranslatability. In fact, you won’t be able to detect any errors or anything that may have gone wrong because there is no one to check or verify the newly translated content.
⠀
Translation agencies will give proper credit to your content by making sure that everything makes sense, works well, and is error-free.
⠀
Some translation agencies have their own industry experts on their team, which means you can get an expert’s perspective on your content.
