Offer multilingual WordPress sites to your clients
How designers and agencies add translation to client WordPress projects with FluentC, in five setup steps, with client editing and a flat price per site, per language.

Some clients do not think about a second language until you raise it. If you build WordPress sites, translation is an add-on you can offer without taking on a translation project. This article is about the FluentC WordPress plugin.
Note: For clients that are not on WordPress, FluentC Domains translates the site on a subdomain or country domain without touching the origin site.
Why offer translation
- New markets. A multilingual site attracts international visitors and opens markets for your client.
- Search visibility. Translated, search-optimized pages give your clients a way to be found in other languages.
- A fuller service. Translation in your stack makes you more valuable and widens the scope of a project.
What usually goes wrong
Some approaches duplicate every post and page, confuse the client, or slow the site down. Managing languages by hand does not scale, especially when the client wants control over their content after launch.
What FluentC gives you
- Automatic translation into 128+ languages, not metered by the word.
- SEO with translated URLs and meta tags.
- No content duplication, so the site stays clean and fast. See translations without duplicate posts, pages or products.
- Editing for the client after launch.
- A flat price per site, per language, that you can pass on or bundle into your service. Current plans are on the pricing page.
Using it on a client project
FluentC fits into your usual WordPress workflow:
- Install and activate the plugin.
- Connect it to a FluentC account. You can create one here.
- Scan the site to detect translatable content.
- Choose the languages your client needs.
- FluentC translates automatically.
After that, your client can log in, review the translations and edit them without your involvement.
Selling it
Because the price is flat per site, per language, you can quote a flat monthly rate for translation, for example for a site in Spanish and French. You stay focused on design and delivery, and the client gets localized content without ongoing translation work.
