Lower housing prices translate to more bang for your buck. The American "buck", however, has taken quite a beating over the last several years. Many real estate professionals are now experiencing an influx of foreign buyers into the US real estate market. Their euro, dinar, yen, krona, etc. stretches further over here. Investing in a holiday home in the US has become very attractive to buyers in other countries. Is your real estate website ready to handle this? With the Website Translator widget, you can make your site multi-lingual instantly.
Google Translate allows you to type any word, phrase or sentence into a box on its site and instantly translates this into the language you select (everything from Afrikaans to Yiddish and all stops in between). This has been great for helping translate emails or decipher something you've seen on the TV, internet or in print. If you created a whole website dedicated to a specific foreign language in the past, it could take hours of time and/or a lot of money spent to pay a translator to do the job for you. And that's just for one language. With Google's Website Translator, international visitors to your real estate site can easily read what you have to offer in the language of their choosing. Since it offers more than 60 languages, your website's reach extends further than ever before.
Make your site multi-lingual instantly with Google's Website Translator. Don't lose out on valuable real estate sales because foreign buyers can't understand your site. Reach the international market with ease. Remember, if you ever need help installing this widget on your site, please don't hesitate to contact Second Self.

Barbara - Thank you for sharing detailed quality information on make your site multi lingual instantly.
Barbara- great post indeed; my only concern is that the client then assumes you speak their language, which can present problems down the road. I don't do Spanish or Chinese or Italian but have found that most international clients who come here to purchase have enough of a knowledge of English that they can work with us without the need to know their language. I do enjoy working with Germans, since it lets me use the language but even those Germans speak English.
