Website translation and localization are distinct yet complementary processes. Translation focuses on converting content from one language to another, ensuring linguistic accuracy and effective communication. Localization, however, goes beyond mere translation. It involves adapting various elements of a website—including content, design, functionality, and user experience—to cater to the cultural, social, and even political nuances of the target audience, localization services. This distinction is crucial because localization ensures that the website feels native to the local culture, enhancing user engagement and satisfaction. By combining both translation and localization, businesses can connect more meaningfully with international customers. TransPerfect excels in providing comprehensive localization services that go beyond simple translation.
