Translation Agencies

Lower price for freelancers or better quality with agencies?

You can use efficient means of translation like :TRADOS, Systran, BabelFish, WordFast, machine translation, automatic translation programs.

Often you will come across " AltaVista, WorldLingo , Lagenburg, Translation Experts ,SDL International, website free translation" in your search on Google for an agency that says "We deliver high quality, fast turnaround translation at very competitive prices."

When you are comparing translation rates, costs at agencies, trying to get the best price for a translation you may search an Internet list of freelance translators. Is this always the case, or do agencies just use the cheapest freelancer, not the most experienced? You may try "Translators Direct, Translation Services, Jobs - ProZ.com... and translation jobs for freelance translators and translation agencies. ... freelance language translators, translation agencies and translation jobs .www.proz.com/" and find so many translators, you waste time searching for the best professional translator, so many choices?

Maybe an agency such as www.appliedlanguage.com/ company states that they are "offering high quality professional language translation at excellent prices.We offer business translation, personal translation and free translation services. We deliver high quality, fast turnaround translation at very competitive prices.Why not get an online translation quote, Translation to your deadlines Translation as good as the original,Specialist Translations Website Translation Technical Translation Legal Translation Marketing Translation Medical Translation Financial Translation, ratings of translation agencies", etc.

How can you distinguish a good translation agency from a bad one?

One website may offer "ratings of translation agencies", so you can determine which to avoid.

A typical agency first page will read like this one: " Eurotext Translations is a leading provider of professional language and translation services. We service dynamic multinational companies and organisations in the USA, UK and Europe, operating from a number of local offices.
Our global team of localisation experts work together to provide the quality you would expect from a global translation partner with the attention to detail you deserve.
Feel free to contact us at any time to discuss your translation needs or to request an information pack with more details about our translation services. "

This sounds good and many agencies use similar words. It may be difficult to know which is the best agency.

Another agency states "Full service translation agency....A professional language and translation agency translates more than words: it translates your message, your tone, your subtle meanings, your design. It takes the documents, sales collateral or web site you have produced in your native language and delivers fully localised versions for your target markets."

The target markets must pay the standard rates, I would assume. A professional translator is needed.

Communication with clients is necessary. One agency states:

"Customer care
Eurotext Translations has always been committed to building strong client relationships, facilitating an open forum for exchange of information and meeting our clients' needs through flexible working procedures. All this to prove our absolute commitment to being the best corporate translation partner for you." What do they mean by "open forum"?

What are "flexible working procedures"? Does that translate into higher overall costs for revision and editing?

Freelancers wills sign up and register to get jobs "Translation Portal: Translation Jobs from Translation Agencies and ...Portal for translators and translation agencies. Receive translation jobs from translation companies. Database of freelance translators ,Translation services for global communicators", so there is a wide variety to choose from.

Often a client calls up for computer manual translations EnglishGerman.Most astute translators know that Conoco needs Russian translations, and oiil companies need translations. Perhaps an agency like the Ubiquis translation agency might be able to find the best translators. But, who has the monopoly?

You may call the agency thinking about translation of business correspondance, CAFTA, Spanish translators?

Sure there is a need for US military translators, Iraq war translators, post-911 Translators, learning about terrorism, bankruptcy laws in the US and how these documents need to be translated into languages like Spanish, Chinese, etc.

And if you are pondering business in Latin America, Mexico, Costa Rica,etc., with CAFTA approved, you will surely need a Spanish<English translator

Are freelance translators cheaper, and should you search for translation agencies in Dallas, Houston, Miami,New York, Los Angeles, San Jose, Internet techonology hotspots?

Where can you, after being exhausted searching on Google for the best rates for translation , professional translators, immigration paper translators, green card translators, get what you require? If entering the country legally, USA immigration translators would be an important search criteria.

French companies in the USA? You may go to the Rive Gauche Restaurant in Palos Verdes, but you need to communicate the important documents. Staying at Sofitel, you know your business can afford good translations.

Big document topics are "Aerospace translators, NASA document translation, financial , Bourse de Paris, real estate translators, tourism , American business.

British business, Asian business, Russian oil fields, cheap real estate: important areas to concentrate on.

Business needs of Latin American companies are now vital with CAFTA, communication in Spanish and English.
