First things first, website localization is NOT website translation. It is much more than that. Localization refers to the process of determining your target market and adapting your website and/or mobile app not only to the local language but also the culture.

One of the elements of localization is thus translation. But it is not the only element here. The overall message, the color schemes, the design, and the images should reflect the specific language and cultural preferences of the given target market.

So, if you are trying to localize a website, make sure to not only translate the web copy but also make it fit the context from the perspective of both language and culture.

Yes, it is already available.

Since the inception of GTranslate we knew, that we should develop a user dashboard enabling you to do whatever you want with your GTranslate subscriptions without our help. All this time we were gathering information on what you want to have on it and were investigating industry best practicing to design easy to use, yet highly functional tool to serve your needs.

And here it is: GTranslate User Dashboard is ready to go.

Let's see how it can make your experience with GTranslate delightful.

Today we are announcing a new era of automatic translation quality.

The latest research achievements in AI made it possible to create a new technology based on artificial neural networks which learns from millions of examples and produces almost perfect quality translations.

Compared to statistical machine translation algorithms used by Google, neural translations reduce the error rate by 80% which make the quality comparable to human translators. For example statistical translation quality for Spanish to English ranked at 6 out of 10, with 10 being a perfect translation. Human translators generally rank at 8.5 and new neural machine translations hit 8.3.

By adding this great achievement in translation quality into our product we are cutting huge costs and making it easy and affordable to reach global markets.

Today we are happy to announce that GTranslate will provide Let's Encrypt certificates for language domains.

This will help you to save more than 500 USD per year on SSL certificates. This is best for non-profit organizations and small companies with limited assets.
