Multi-Lingual Web Site
Our organization needs a multi-lingual web site that supports complex characters like Chinese and Arabic.
Multi-lingual web sites require coordination of multiple intricate technologies and processes. On the technology side there are encoding and decoding at different levels - encoding at the web application front-end and database back-end; decoding from the database to the front-end web page; etc. On the process side, there are many questions that need to be answered. For instance, how the translation process will work (is it one-to-one relationship?), how web visitors will find the other language versions (a link on the page or is it a separate web site?), what happens when they search for something (does the application search through all language versions?), etc. We help negotiate these intricacies, select the right technology tools, and implement a multi-lingual site that works for the organization and the web site visitors.
