FluentC vs Weglot
Weglot prices by plan tier, and adding strings can move you into a higher tier. FluentC prices per site, by number of languages, and does not limit strings or how often visitors see your translations. Weglot hosts translations remotely, so your traffic goes to their site; the FluentC WordPress plugin keeps translations on your server.
See the comparisonFluentC vs WPML
WPML stores each translation as a separate post and adds pages, posts and menus for every language. The FluentC WordPress plugin is built to avoid that, and it charges by number of languages instead of a licence plus ongoing translation costs. WPML can translate from the WordPress admin; for FluentC that is listed as a future release.
See the comparisonFluentC vs TranslatePress
TranslatePress adds pages, posts, files and menus as you add languages, and its navigation needs manual setup. The FluentC WordPress plugin is listed as adding none of these, and it charges by number of languages instead of a licence plus translation costs. Both support hreflang; with TranslatePress you set it up manually.
See the comparisonFluentC vs Polylang
Polylang adds pages, posts and menus for each language you add, and its navigation needs manual setup. The FluentC WordPress plugin is listed as needing neither, and it charges by number of languages. Polylang starts free; WooCommerce support is a premium upgrade.
See the comparisonFluentC vs GTranslate
GTranslate hosts your translations on its own content cloud, so your traffic goes to a server you do not own. The FluentC WordPress plugin keeps translations on your WordPress site. GTranslate prices in tiers; FluentC prices per site, by number of languages.
See the comparisonFluentC vs Google Translate
Letting visitors translate your site with the Google Translate widget, or with their browser, gives you no SEO. The table lists no hreflang support and remotely hosted translations, with visitors waiting for the translation each time. FluentC is built to bring extra traffic by expanding your keywords into other languages.
See the comparisonA widget changes what people see.
A translate widget or a browser's translate button changes what one visitor sees. It does not give search engines a page in that language to index, so you aren't found in it.
FluentC gives each language its own indexable pages, with hreflang set for you. That is the difference between being translated and being found.
Start with one language.
