Websites

Multilingual websites

We build websites in more than one language the right way: each language gets its own pages, Arabic and Urdu read right to left, and search engines show each visitor the version in their language.

Website shown in two languages
Best for
Businesses selling in the Gulf, Europe or Pakistan whose customers speak different languages, and anyone whose current translated site relies on an automatic widget.

Sound familiar?

You are in the right place if

  • Your site uses an automatic translate button, and it reads badly.
  • The Arabic version is a mirror image with broken layouts.
  • Google shows English pages to people searching in Arabic.
  • Updating content in two languages is so painful the second one goes stale.

What you get

Everything included

Delivered together and tested before launch.

  1. 01

    A page per language

    Each language on its own address, so it can rank in search and be shared.

  2. 02

    Right-to-left layouts

    Arabic and Urdu designed to read right to left, with mixed English text and numbers handled properly.

  3. 03

    Language switcher

    A clear switch that takes visitors to the same page in the other language.

  4. 04

    Search setup

    hreflang tags and sitemaps so Google shows the right language to the right person.

  5. 05

    Translation workflow

    Content managed side by side in your CMS, so both languages stay up to date.

  6. 06

    Fonts that work

    Typefaces chosen for each script, loading fast.

How it works

4 steps, one fixed price

A multilingual site usually takes a little longer than a single-language one, mostly for translation and review.

  1. 1

    Plan the languages

    Which pages, which languages and who translates.

  2. 2

    Design both directions

    Layouts designed for left to right and right to left from the start.

  3. 3

    Build

    Built with the language structure and CMS workflow in place.

  4. 4

    Launch

    Each language checked by a native speaker before going live.

Is it right for you

An honest answer before you spend anything

A good fit

  • Businesses selling in the Gulf, Europe or Pakistan whose customers speak different languages, and anyone whose current translated site relies on an automatic widget.

Probably not the right fit

  • If almost all your customers speak one language, a single well-written site will serve you better for now.

Last reviewed

Can you translate the content?

We work with native-speaking translators and reviewers. Automatic translation alone is not good enough for a business site.

Is an automatic translation widget bad for SEO?

Usually it does not help, because the translated text is not on its own indexable pages. Separate pages per language work better.

Can you add Arabic to our existing website?

Yes, though layouts often need adjusting for right to left. We review the site first and tell you what is involved.

Which CMS works best for multiple languages?

WordPress and headless setups with Next.js both handle it well. We recommend one based on your team.
