Description

The Translation Industry is becoming quite overcrowded so you need a competitive edge. That's where a translator website comes in! Having your own website for your translation business will show both direct clients and translation companies that you take translating very seriously and professionalism is a major priority to you.

Imagine: 2 translators with similar backgrounds and skill levels apply for a job, but only one of them has a website for their translation business. Who would you pick?

I would say it's a pretty easy choice for most people. The one with the website automatically gets the leg up. It shows everyone you're a full-time, dedicated translator.

Before you even start looking for direct clients, you should have a website as well.

During this course, in as little as 3 hours, you'll learn everything you need to know about how to set up your very own translator website. The upside to having a website is exponential. If it gives you the edge on just one job over the next year, it's paid for itself.

Hi Andrew, I finally sort of finished my website, still working on the last 2 fields of the homepage. I really enjoyed this course as it gave me the technical knowledge of how to put it together. I already have some experience with website building but, it was rather the info needed that I was and still missing. Most grateful for any comments: www.translationwise.com.au

Andrew is a full time ES>EN medical translator and also the writer and creator of Healthy Freelancers. My mission is to help language professionals take advantage of their decision to run their own lives through creating healthy habits and prioritizing their lifestyle so they can take advantage of all the benefits that the freelance lifestyle has to offer. I believe most of us became freelancers to take back control of our lives and that's what I aim to do.
