WordPress Toronto Presents: Weglot Workshop - Try Weglot (not just WordPress!)

Let's face it. For most of us, the translation process is overwhelming, expensive and difficult to maintain.

Weglot (www.weglot.com) may be the answer. Weglot has developed a WordPress plugin that features a five minute install, activation and initial configuration. Then Weglot translates your copy automatically, on the fly, and creates a best-effort translation using commercial cloud-based translation services.

If a user chooses French on the website, then the page is translated automatically. There's no translated copy to worry about. There's no practical limit to the number of languages. And it is pay-as-you-go based on the number of words your visitors have translated.

Weglot automatically translates your website content in the cloud, and features an easy workflow to manage all translations in as many as 100+ languages. You must see this innovative solution and how it stacks up against the current competition.

This is the last of 3 sponsored WordPress Toronto Meetups. In this workshop, volunteers will be on hand to allow you to quickly publish your website into 2 or more languages in just a few minutes. All websites are welcome, not just WordPress-powered ones.

These content management systems are supported "out of the box":

WordPress
Shopify
BigCommerce
Wix
Drupal
Laravel
Symfony
Static HTML websites using JavaScript integration

Weglot automates translation in the cloud and enables an easy workflow to manage all translations in 100+ languages.
