However much you can learn from the hundreds of SEO guides available online, very few of them can be fully applied to SEO for translators.
As SEO translators, we examine things such as local search behaviour, cultural influence on searching habits, preferred local brands, language use, user experience, etc. We then optimise content for each target market, which translates into higher rankings, more traffic, and more sales.
Despite many translators claiming to be SEO experts, there aren’t many real specialists capable of advising clients beyond keywords.
Dedicated experts are highly sought after and are very hard to find! Specialising in SEO translation gives you a competitive advantage like no other, as it allows you to become the go-to linguist for your clients when it comes to international SEO efforts.
This ebook will define what SEO is, why it is crucial, and the main objectives when improving search engine rankings for a website (or for any type of content).
We will explore aspects like search intent, search volumes, types of SEO ranking factors, search engines, the impact of culture on SEO, and language varieties’ effect on SEO.
Finally, we will deal in detail with everything related to keywords, how to find the best ones, and strategically place them in your translation, among other exciting bits.
International companies that are serious about their global marketing invest time, effort, and money in ranking high on search engines in every market in which they operate.
Experience and trial and error have taught them that simply translating their content or their keywords doesn’t cut it: they know that they need to rely on experts. This ebook will help turn you into one of those experts.
If you’ve been looking for SEO advice geared specifically towards translators, this ebook is for you! SEO for translators is a growing field, but there are few resources available that provide practical advice. The SEO Translation Bible fills this gap and provides straightforward tips you can implement immediately to improve your clients’ ranking in search engines.
