Website localization, on every publish.

A new page in English, still missing in French and German a month later. Your content agent translates every page, SEO elements included, and keeps languages in sync.

What is website localization?

Website localization adapts a website for each language and target market: the text and labels, the SEO elements like titles and URLs, and the details that change from one country to the next, such as formats, examples, tone and cultural nuances. Translation is the core of it. The hard part is not the first version but keeping every language in sync as the site changes.

Why multilingual sites fall out of sync.

Translating a website once is a project. Keeping it translated is a routine nobody owns: every new page, every price change and every corrected typo in the main language has to reach every target language. Website localization services usually quote per word and per batch, so small updates wait until there is enough to send. Meanwhile, visitors in your global markets read a site that is a little older, a little less accurate, and less likely to rank in their language.

Signs your localization is falling behind.

If one of these sounds familiar.

  • New pages in one language only

    The latest guides and product pages exist in your main language, and the other versions stop a few months back.

  • Languages out of sync

    You updated a page in English, a new section, a reworded paragraph, a new plan, and the French and German versions still show the old text.

  • English titles and URLs in search results

    Your French pages appear in Google with an English title, description and URL, like /fr/pricing instead of /fr/tarifs, because nobody translated the SEO elements.

  • Updates waiting for a batch

    Small changes pile up until there are enough words to send to the agency, so every language lags behind.

How it works.

On every publish, four steps.

  1. Spots what changed

    Each time you publish, the content agent finds the new and changed website content in your main language, down to a single label.

  2. Translates it

    Text, labels and SEO elements, including the meta title, description, image alt text and URL, into each of your languages, as multilingual content that reads naturally to your target audience.

  3. Learns your preferences

    A product name you keep in English, a term you prefer in German, a more formal tone in French: the content agent learns them from your answers and corrections, and applies them next time.

  4. You approve, or it publishes

    Each language waits in a preview: publish it, edit it, or turn it down. Or switch the routine to automatic and the content agent publishes every language itself. Every version is kept.

Before and after.

One price change on a site in English, French and German. The changes are highlighted.

/jackets/waxed in three languages

Price: what each language shows
Before:The new price in English, the old one in French and German for three weeks
After:The new price in all three languages, the day you publish
Search result: the German title
Before:“Waxed jackets”, still in English
After:“Wachsjacken”, translated with the page
Your product name in German
Before:Translated word for word
After:Kept in English, as you asked last time

What you get.

  • Every language up to date

    New pages, prices and corrections reach every language when you publish, not at the next batch.

  • Found in every market

    Translated titles, descriptions and URLs let each language rank in its own market: translation SEO, done with the text.

  • Terms that stay yours

    The content agent remembers what you corrected, so product names and preferred terms stay consistent in every language.

Agency, software or agent?

Three ways to keep a multilingual website up to date, and what each one asks of you.

  • Website localization services

    An agency with professional translators, paid per word. The right choice for legal pages and high-stakes campaigns, where every word needs human translation, a native-language reviewer and a strict translation process.

  • Website translation software

    Automatic website translation tools and plugins translate pages quickly, often as a layer on top of your site. Check whether they translate SEO elements and URLs, and whether search engines index each language.

  • Your content agent

    Great for keeping every language in sync without a batch to manage: the content agent translates on your site, as you publish, and learns your terms along the way.

Works with your tools.

Questions about website localization.

Straight answers.

Agencies and freelance translators who translate a website and adapt it to each market, usually paid per word, within a localization workflow that adds quality checks and layout fixes. They are the reference for high-stakes content. For the everyday work of keeping every language up to date, a website localization tool or an agent costs less and moves faster.

Most professional translation projects cost between $0.10 and $0.18 per word, according to Milengo, and Alconost’s data from over 3,200 projects puts French at around $0.10 and German at $0.11. A 10,000-word site in two extra languages therefore costs roughly $2,000 to $3,600 for the first version, and every update is billed again.Source: Milengo, translation rates guide (2026)Source: Alconost, localization cost from 3,200+ projects

Translation turns the words into another language. Localization adapts the whole page to a market: the words, but also formats, examples, tone and the details people in that country expect. The content agent translates every page and learns your local preferences from your corrections.

Making each language findable in its own market: translating the title, description, headings, alt text and URLs of every page, using the words people actually search for in that language, and connecting the versions with hreflang tags. The content agent handles the translated elements; hreflang is a routine of your SEO agent.

Yes. Languages are part of your content: you add a language and translate content and labels in the visual editor, one locale at a time, and the content agent keeps every language in sync as you publish. Fimo also hosts the site, so it works as a multilingual website builder and CMS in one.

For most pages, the translation quality is high when the translation knows your product and your terms, and it gets better as the content agent learns from your corrections. For legal pages or a major campaign, keep approval on for that language and have someone whose native language it is review it before it goes live.

Yes. The content agent translates the pages, and the SEO agent’s hreflang routine connects each version to the others, so Google shows the right language in each country. When the content agent publishes a new translation, its tags are checked on the same publish.

Every plan, Free included: the translation agent runs on the free plan along with the SEO agents. Paid plans add more AI credits and agent-hours. See the pricing page for the details.
