What is Website Translation and Localization?
Localization, also known by its acronym L10n, is process of refining language, interface, and functionality of the website to suit the local market. The main goal of localization is to create a website that has the following characteristics:
- Taking into account the differences in language, culture, and technical factors.
- Maintaining the original intent of the source text without altering it.
- Creating the feeling for the reader that the original content was written in their target language.
A website localization project may seem challenging at first, but the end result – a website that opens the door to millions of potential new customers – is the key factor for the sustainable growth of any business.
What is the difference between translation and localization?
Although often misunderstood as the same concept, the difference between website translation and website localization is actually quite clear.
Website translation primarily focuses on converting content from one language to another, usually by directly replacing words.
Website localization is a more comprehensive process, where the website content is fine-tuned and adjusted to suit a specific target audience. This process not only involves translation but also includes adjustments to formatting, usability, and considers cultural factors such as preferences and taboos.
Why do you need to localize your website?
Enhance User Experience
Improve the user experience by creating a website that is easy to understand and navigate for customers in each specific local market. When users feel comfortable and understood, they are more likely to engage with the website and take actions such as making purchases, signing up, or downloading.
Expand Market Reach and Increase Revenue
Enable businesses to reach global markets. By tailoring the content and functionality of the website to meet the needs and expectations of users in each country or region, businesses can attract more potential customers, leading to revenue growth.
Build Trust and Foster Loyalty
Localization demonstrates that the business cares about and respects the language, culture, and local regulations. This not only helps build customer trust but also strengthens loyalty, as customers feel that the business understands and values their needs.
Global Trends in Internet Usage
To understand the importance of website localization for a business, we need to consider how the world is using the internet. For example, out of approximately 4 billion daily internet users, only 25% speak English, and more than half of all Google searches are conducted in languages other than English.
Additionally, according to market research, 85% of internet users will not purchase a product if the product information is not presented in their native language. Moreover, 56% of customers believe that localized product information is more important than price. Clearly, focusing solely on English-speaking customers may limit a business's growth opportunities.

The Process of Website Translation/Website Localization
Stage 1: Project Preparation
Your website localization strategy needs to be carefully planned to ensure everything runs smoothly. Once the business requirements and target language are determined, the Language Service Provider (LSP) will work with you to create a detailed project plan and workflow to ensure completion meets your requirements and expectations. Common steps in the project preparation stage include:
- Extracting all text/articles/links that need to be translated
- Estimating word count, costs, and completion time
- Organizing terminology and developing style guides
- Creating a Translation Memory (TM) specific to the company to store all translated content
Stage 2: Project Implementation
The translation phase of the website localization project begins once the appropriate guidelines have been established.
During the implementation process, the content is assigned to a team of native translators for that language, who have many years of experience in website localization and a deep understanding of the project’s characteristics. These professional translators with extensive experience will translate your content according to your guidelines and principles.
A second team of reviewers then edits the entire translated text to ensure that the content is culturally and contextually appropriate for the target audience.
Stage 3: Post-localization Quality Check
Once all the translated content has been approved, the entire translation will be reviewed and checked again by the highest-skilled translators.
At this stage, ensuring the quality of language and functionality is essential before the official launch.
