website localization

Localization is more than just simple translation—it considers the culture of the people you’re trying to reach. Let's dive into the details of what a qualified team can do to localize your website and software translation projects.

CyraCom analyzes your text and reframes the messaging, imagery, and layout of your website or software to suit the target culture. The goal is to make it appear as if you created your site or software specifically for non-English audiences.

Website localization

Of the 4 billion people who use the internet daily, only 25% are English speakers. According to Common Sense Advisory, 75% of global online shoppers prefer to buy products in their native language, and 60% rarely or never buy from English-only websites. The best way to expand your product or service internationally is to provide information in the language of the countries you’d like to target.

Software localization

CyraCom can help you adapt your software’s user interface (UI) to a specific locale’s language, culture, and legal requirements. We check for a variety of location or cultural- and linguistic-dependent content, such as:

  • Local APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), operating systems, search engines, and currency and accounting standards
  • Formatting specific to the target language; for example, double-byte characters used in Asian languages, such as Japanese, Chinese and Korean, or right-to-left writing systems, such as Arabic, Hebrew, or Farsi
  • Sorting algorithms for non-Roman character sets
  • Format varieties such as dates, currency, or addresses
