by Native Speaking Linguists
for Business and Professional Organizations
Translating your organization’s website into another language is one of the most obvious steps to take to more effectively connect and communicate with a foreign language audience. For many commercial organizations in search of their next growth market, non-English speaking customers are a natural target.
Affinity Translation is highly skilled in website translation. Regardless of the language it is especially important to utilize translators having in-depth familiarity with the source site’s objectives and subject matter. The unique requirements of each website translation project are taken into account in order to carefully match projects with the best-suited website translators. Affinity Translation works with an extensive network of website translators to ensure the best fit between translators (or translator teams) and projects.
Web Site Importance
Organizations create and post web sites for numerous reasons. For many, web sites are an integral part of the organization’s marketing process. When Affinity Translation is contacted about translation of web sites we typically ask about the online objectives of the prospective client. Many times stated objectives fall into one of several categories such as: 1) establishing and reinforcing the organization’s brand, 2) dispersing information or otherwise educating a target audience about the organization’s purpose, 3) generating sales leads, 4) conducting e-commerce, or a combination of several.
Affinity Translation can support the objectives associated with each of the categories mentioned here, and more. Understanding the main objectives associated with a target web site is essential to calibrating its translation correctly. For all web site translation projects, Affinity Translation goes to great pains in selecting and properly preparing the translator(s) assigned to the project.
Translation Accuracy
Translation accuracy is critical to the success of every project no matter the size. All projects undergo initial translation followed by editing review(s) to ensure the highest quality (see translation process description below).
Affinity Translation translators rank among the most skilled and experienced native speaking linguists in the translation and localization industiries. Despite some advancements in automated translation technologies, native speaking human translators remain the best approach for producing high quality translations.

Translation Pricing
Translation pricing is based on a per word rate determined by factoring in multiple project specific criteria including: 1) the nature (relative complexity) of the source material, 2) the scope of the project (measured in word-count), and 3) turnaround time (i.e., rush vs. standard turnaround time).
Translation Process Schedule/Turnaround Time
We recognize that translation project schedules can be critical considerations. Actual project durations vary depending on the scope and complexity of each project. We work closely with our clients to determine project schedules that allow sufficient time for high quality translation processes and project delivery in a timely manner.
