One of the biggest challenges in WordPress is translating content. WordPress has no built-in translation functionality, so a translation plugin is required. A plugin alone is not enough, though – a number of settings have to be right for everything to work properly. Adding the translated content itself can also prove awkward and time-consuming.

We offer a professional service for adding translation capability to WordPress. We make your website multilingual and enter all the translations you need. Where it helps, we can also assist with AI-based translation and build a custom language switcher, so the whole thing is smooth and easy to use.

We have experience with a range of WordPress translation plugins:

  • WPML (WordPress Multilingual)
  • TranslatePress
  • Weglot
  • Polylang
  • Loco Translate

We always choose the translation plugin based on the website and its specific needs, because not every plugin covers every element that needs translating. We analyse the structure of the site and choose the best option, keeping speed and performance in mind as well. WPML, for instance, is comprehensive but its heavy queries can put considerable load on the database, so we often prefer a different solution.

Our service covers everything you need to make your WordPress site fully multilingual and genuinely easy to use.

How this job works

  1. Send an enquiry

    Send us your site address and a couple of sentences about the problem. We usually reply the same or the next working day.

  2. We review it and give you the price

    The assessment is free. You’ll know the exact time and price before you decide on anything.

    We take a backup before making changes. When the work is done you get a summary of exactly what was done and what to keep an eye on going forward.

Frequently asked questions

How much does this cost?

This job typically takes around 8 hours, which works out at roughly 400 € + VAT. We’ll give you the exact price after a free assessment – and if the job turns out smaller, you pay less.

How quickly can you start?

We usually pick up smaller jobs within 1–3 working days. If your site is down or it’s a security incident, we start the same day – just say so when you write.

What if the job takes longer than expected?

If it turns out the scope is growing, we get in touch and agree it with you before carrying on. You’ll never receive an invoice for something that wasn’t discussed beforehand.

Do I have to move my site to you?

No. We do the work where your site already lives. All we need is access to the WordPress admin and usually to the hosting as well.

Is a backup made before the work?

Yes, always. Before any change we take a copy of the files and the database, so it can be rolled back in seconds if needed.

We have worked with Birk for eight years now. This time we wanted a new website for the company, and the goals were set high from the very start – in visuals, functionality, manageability and SEO. Thanks to Birk’s professional approach we got a website of a high standard that met our expectations 100%.
