Website Localization Services

What is localization?

Localization is the process of adapting a translation, software, video game, or application to a new market and audience. Businesses that expand their product, slogan, or software rely on localization experts to make their products applicable and relatable to new markets. Translations must be culturally sensitive and targeted specifically to their audience and local clientele. Translators, localization engineers, and graphic artists go through a variety of procedures to:

Research local norms and regulations
Format and resize the layout for translations with word expansion, contraction, or texts that read from right to left
Adapt color palettes
Adapt imagery to reflect local culture
Convert currencies and dates

The localized product is then both visually and linguistically tested with a small group of the target audience. Once validated, the final version is implemented to the new market.

Have you heard of transcreation?

While localization adapts a translation to a new market, transcreation is the art of recreating content from one language to another. This process helps you connect on a deeper, more intimate level with your prospects or clients. It’s especially beneficial for taglines and mission statements that don’t directly translate into another language; they must be completely recreated to form a similar message and feel in the target language/culture. Transcreation is typically involved in some capacity of a localization project.
