Yeah, translating is good business, I make a reasonable income from taking Spanish or German pages and translating them into English, but I don't have the native voice for going the other way, and I think if you live in the EU spreading your options with the major languages is a good thing.Quote:

If the people you know are prepared to work for normal Internet rates, you know between $0.1 to $0.3 per word they'd probably get enough work to build a decent portfolio and a great network, and that'd help them develop offline clients as well.
Yes yes, for sure. A 100 word article for about $0.10/word means $10 for an easy job. I will talk them into it, this way I can get some articles for cheap..hehe :p;):cool:..:D
My bad, I meant $0.01 :oQuote:

Could this be one of the reasons Google starts to discount/deindex the non-english pages?
Are you using manual or automated translations?Quote:

Most of your traffic comes from non-English keywords? Very interesting! :)
That's quite an insightful thread. May I know what do you do for automatic translations. I mean, I understand "Google translate" but how do you actually translate your blog posting into other languages and publish them at the same time - all automatically.
I just entered the health niche, well -? the anxiety niche to be exact :)
We use our own translation script.Quote:
