Increasing global reach and engagement with localization: best practices for creating a multilingual website

Localizing your website allows you to put your company’s best face forward for new international clients. However, it involves more than website translation — that’s just one step in the process.

Before building a multilingual website, you’ll need to assess your new audience and adapt your strategy to allow for language and cultural differences. It takes careful planning, using the right digital tools and talent, and understanding how to scale efforts and keep your brand voice consistent, all while ensuring your customers have a positive user experience. Your localization approach can define the success of your expansion and whether your initiatives help you achieve your company’s overarching goals.
