Multilingual Setup (WPML)

If your audience is global but your website is only in one language, you’re leaving traffic, leads, and sales on the table. I help businesses turn their WordPress sites into fully multilingual websites using WPML, so visitors can browse in their own language while you stay in full control of SEO and content.

With years of experience configuring WPML on complex WordPress setups, I don’t just “turn it on and translate.” I carefully plan your language structure, URLs, menus, and SEO settings so that each language version of your site is properly indexed and easy to manage.

Whether you need two languages or ten, I’ll configure WPML to work smoothly with your theme, page builder (Elementor, Gutenberg, etc.), WooCommerce, and any key plugins you’re using.

What’s included in my WPML multilingual setup service:

  • Full WPML configuration (core + necessary add-ons)
  • Language switcher setup (menu, header, footer, or custom placement)
  • URL structure setup for SEO (subdirectories like /en/, /fr/, etc.)
  • Translation-ready templates for pages, posts, custom post types, and taxonomies
  • WooCommerce multilingual setup (products, categories, checkout, emails) if needed
  • Basic guidance on how to translate and manage content going forward

From an SEO perspective, multilingual setup has to be done carefully. I make sure each language version is treated as its own optimized “mini-site”:

  • Correct hreflang tags so Google knows which language/region to show
  • Proper meta titles and descriptions per language
  • Clean, consistent URL structure for every market
  • No accidental duplicate content or indexing issues between languages

Why use WPML for your multilingual website?

  • It’s a mature, battle-tested solution widely supported by premium themes and plugins
  • It works with WordPress standards and lets you translate almost every part of the site
  • It’s reliable for larger sites with many pages, custom fields, and WooCommerce products

Frequently asked questions

Can you migrate my existing translations into WPML?
Yes. If you’ve been handling translations manually or with another plugin, I can help map existing content into WPML’s structure and avoid content loss.

Do you provide the actual translations?
You can use your own translators, WPML’s translation management, or external services. I focus on configuring WPML, making your site fully translation-ready, and ensuring everything works and ranks properly. If needed, I can also help you integrate with translation providers.

Will multilingual setup affect my current SEO?
If done correctly, it should improve your SEO by giving search engines language-specific content and hreflang signals. I configure everything with SEO best practices, so your existing rankings are preserved while you open doors to new markets.
