Services
Building a multilingual website or web service used to be time consuming, difficult and expensive. In addition to providing a wide variety of free, open source software and tools, Worldwide Lexicon Inc offers turnkey translation solutions for small businesses, enterprise clients and web developers.
Turnkey Translation Service
We can help you transform your single-language website into a multilingual website with our turnkey translation services. There is no software to install. We take care of everything for you. Here's how it works:
- You create special web domains for the translated versions of your website (for example, es.yourcompany.com for Spanish)
- We build and host a translation server for you at this domain. This server loads pages from www.yourcompany.com and translates them using the best available human and machine translations.
- We use machine translation to obtain an instant, but temporary, translation. This is later replaced with a professional translation (at a cost of 5-10 cents per word) or with a community edited translation (if you allow your users to translate your website).
- We work with several professional translation companies, and can work with your existing provider if you already have one.
- New service can be deployed in minutes, as quickly as you can register new web domains.

About
The Worldwide Lexicon is an open source collaborative translation platform. It is similar to systems like Wikipedia, and combines machine translation with submissions from volunteers and professional translators. WWL is a translation memory, essentially a giant database of translations, which can be embedded in almost any website or web application. Our mission is to eliminate the language barrier for interesting websites and articles, by enabling people to create translation communities around their favorite webites, topics or groups.Services
In addition to publishing free, open source software for translation, we offer a wide variety of hosting and consulting services to customers including:- Turnkey, hosted translation solutions for business websites
- Translation community solutions, where your own readers translate your website
- Custom software development services
