A quick FYI on how accurate machine translation can be: We recently did research to see how accurate machine translation is. The findings were incredibly encouraging, which could be a major contributor to why ⅔ of our customers don’t even feel the need to adjust their translations.

Below, we take a closer look at how these companies (and many more like them) use ConveyThis to translate their business websites.

How to Translate Your Entire Business’s Website in Minutes

Once you’ve added ConveyThis to your site, pick your original language (the language your site is in currently) and which languages you wish to convert your content into.

And that’s it. ConveyThis will now translate and display your entire site. All of your product pages, blog posts, headers, footers, on-page SEO elements such as alt tags and metadata, and everything else in between.

Plus, ConveyThis will automatically create unique URLs for each translated site. For example, conveythis.com is our main site and it’s in English. But our French site can be located at conveythis.com/fr/. This subdomain feature is a great advantage for SEO (which we discuss in more detail at the conclusion of this post).

All of your content is easily accessible through the ConveyThis Dashboard, so you don’t need to access multiple hosting platforms.

For most sites using ConveyThis, the entire translation process takes just a few minutes.

But How Accurate is Machine Translation?

Because ConveyThis uses a mix of the best machine translation (MT) services available (from DeepL to Google Translate), you’ll always receive an excellent foundation. Even highly intricate or technical content is being translated accurately by MT.

One of our customers, Basler AG, required translation software that could effectively translate complex service manuals for industrial-grade digital cameras.

But as we said, ConveyThis is also a translation management platform where you can quickly edit your translations—which about ⅓ of our clients take advantage of.

How to Customize Your Translations with ConveyThis

Once your site is translated, you can easily access, customize, and edit your translations with ConveyThis’s translation management platform.

From your dashboard, you can click into a specific translation, and refine your search by locating a particular URL or phrase with ConveyThis.

Once you locate the translation you wish to modify, you can edit it immediately. There is no need to download or transfer any material.

You can also view your translations through ConveyThis’s Visual Editor.

This provides you with a real-time insight into how your localized content coexists with the design and layout of your website.

Plus, ConveyThis Optimizes Your Translated Sites for SEO

ConveyThis ensures that your localized websites are optimized for search engine optimization.

• Effortlessly converts all of your on-page SEO components, including your alt tags and metadata, into other languages.
• Integrate code into your translated site to make it accessible to web users and visible to Google.

A Quick Recap: How to Translate Your Business’s Website in Minutes

In this post, we examined various kinds of companies and distinct translation tasks—from a restaurant with a constantly evolving menu to a SEO agency with hundreds of lengthy webpages of material. ConveyThis can help with all these types of projects, offering a comprehensive translation platform that can be tailored to your specific needs.

Some projects will only need machine translation, where you can add ConveyThis to your CMS and translate all of your content within minutes. Other projects will involve your translators (or translators ordered through ConveyThis) going through and painstakingly scrutinizing particular translations.

Whichever method is right for your business, ConveyThis has you covered.
