Structure translated shop and listing content so buyers and search assistants can find the correct language version.

Translate the meaning

Translate titles, descriptions, policies and category terms for the intended audience instead of relying on word-for-word machine output. Keep product identifiers, prices and availability consistent across languages.

Use crawlable language pages

Important public content should have stable language-specific URLs and server-rendered text. A browser-only language selector is not a substitute for separate crawlable pages.

Quality checks

Ask a fluent reviewer to check transactional words such as refund, cancellation, booking deadline, delivery and warranty. These terms affect buyer decisions and should not be ambiguous.
