Cloudwords for WordPress Accelerates Website Localization for the Global Enterprise

New Integration Capability With WordPress Makes Translating Digital Content for International Markets Easier and Faster

Cloudwords revolutionizes the way companies manage multilingual communication.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 3, 2015) - Cloudwords, the leader in cloud-based translation management and automation, announced a new native integration capability built for WordPress, the world's most popular content management system (CMS) used by nearly a quarter of all websites on the Internet, including Fortune 500 and enterprise organizations worldwide. Cloudwords for WordPress accelerates and simplifies the process of translating WordPress websites and digital content for global markets, making it easier for companies to engage international customers in their native language.

Research by Common Sense Advisory reveals that 55 percent of global consumers prefer to only make purchases from websites in their native language; further, 75 percent of consumers would choose a product with information in their own language over one that's not translated.1 To engage multilingual audiences, increase brand exposure and identify new revenue opportunities in new markets, companies must localize their websites into their target audiences' languages. Through Cloudwords' latest integration, organizations can connect their WordPress sites in minutes to Cloudwords' platform for easy creation of a more globally complete digital presence.

"Just as WordPress made website creation and site management more accessible to more companies, allowing them to keep up with the demand for ever-increasing amounts of content, Cloudwords makes it easier to get all that content translated into all the languages target audiences speak. Now, as more companies recognize the value of localized sites to reach global audiences and drive new growth for their company, they realize that reducing the time and effort it takes to get sites and web content translated is critical. Without a time-saving, fully automated localization process, you risk lagging behind the competition," said Scott Yancey, CEO and co-founder of Cloudwords. "As a leading content management system, WordPress is used by organizations around the world. By introducing Cloudwords for WordPress, we're enabling companies to easily create and deliver world-ready sites without sacrificing time-to-market."

Similar to Cloudwords' integrations with other web content management systems, including Sitecore, Drupal and Adobe Experience Manager, customers use Cloudwords' cloud-based, end-to-end platform to manage the entire localization process of their digital content by simply selecting the sites and pages in WordPress they want translated. Cloudwords sends the content to their preferred translation providers for localization, and once finalized, Cloudwords returns the translated pages back to the correct WordPress templates.

In addition, Cloudwords for WordPress customers benefit from Cloudwords' workflow automation capabilities, including automatic change detection that keeps all language sites up to date, enhanced visibility into project status, and improved collaboration across departments, teams and vendors to enable project completion more efficiently and in less time. Further, Cloudwords offers complete multilingual asset management, including OneTM translation memory, multilingual glossaries and style guides, easy-to-use OneReview translation review capability, and reporting and analytics to monitor translation spend and usage.
