International websites
Multilingual Websites
We don't just preach multilingual — Contentoren itself runs fully bilingual in German and English.
We build multilingual websites that actually work in every market: correct hreflang, localized content instead of raw machine translation, and a maintenance workflow that keeps all languages in sync.
Why professional multilingualism?
A translation plugin makes your site bilingual on the surface — and invisible in international search. Real multilingualism is a technical and editorial discipline.
New markets, real reach
Customers search and buy in their own language. A properly localized site opens markets that a German-only site never reaches.
hreflang done right
Wrong or missing hreflang means Google shows the wrong language to the wrong users — or ranks neither version. We set up the signals correctly and verifiably.
Localization, not just translation
Currencies, examples, tonality, keywords: content that reads native converts — content that reads translated doesn't. AI speeds this up; editorial judgment makes it good.
Maintainable in the long run
The real cost of multilingualism is keeping languages in sync. We build workflows where a change in one language doesn't silently rot in the others.
What you get
Internationalization concept
Country domains, subdirectories or subdomains? Which markets, which languages first? A clear strategy before any implementation.
Technical setup & hreflang
Language routing, hreflang annotations, localized sitemaps and metadata — the machinery international SEO depends on.
Localization workflow
AI-assisted translation with human editorial quality control — fast enough to scale, good enough to convert.
Multilingual CMS
Your editors manage every language in one system — with clear status per language instead of copy-paste chaos.
Localized SEO
Keyword research per market — because literal translations of German keywords are rarely what customers abroad actually type.
Ongoing synchronization
Optional continuous care: new content goes live in all languages, and no version drifts out of date.
How we work
Market & language strategy
Which markets promise the most, and what does 'localized' mean there — language, content, legal specifics?
Technical concept
URL structure, hreflang architecture, CMS setup and language switching — decided once, correctly, instead of patched later.
Implementation
The multilingual infrastructure is built into your site — new or existing — and tested per language.
Content localization
Content is localized market by market: AI-accelerated, editorially reviewed, SEO-checked against local keywords.
QA & launch per market
Every language version launches verified: hreflang, metadata, forms and tracking working in every locale.

Individual quote
The price depends on the number of languages and pages, the localization depth (pure translation vs. market-specific adaptation) and whether we extend an existing site or build new. You get a fixed-price quote after a short call.

Frequently asked questions
It depends on your goals and resources. Subdirectories concentrate SEO authority on one domain and are easiest to maintain; separate country domains signal maximum local commitment but split your link equity and multiply maintenance. We recommend a structure based on your markets — and on what your team can realistically sustain.
