Question websites in multiple languages?

Hi there!

hoping some of you may be able to recommend a good wesite design and hosting service who can provide a website in several languages?

I have a few names and quotes already, but I find that recommendations from past customers are always helpful.

any of you able to recommend a company to do this? (bear in mind i want one who will provide a good translation into the other languages from English!)

many thanks!
Emma

Have you ever used any of those auto-translation scripts with any success? I've been considering trying those out just to see what the interest is like for other countries, but I'm not sure how reliable they are.

I realize that they are nowhere near as good as a real human translation, but are they so bad that they'd do more harm than good?

Do not use automatic translation unless you make it very explicit (big red header, font 50) that the translation is provided only as a guide

Thanks for the heads up!

Actually, I've been learning German for a while now - I'm only at the most basic tourist level, but I'm starting to spot bad mistakes in the online translators already, so I dread to think what it looks like to a native!

I think I'll just use humans for translation, when it's needed.
