The first is an automatic translator such as Google Translate through a plugin: it is fast and cheap, but the translations are not indexed and bring no SEO value. The second is an external automatic translation service: you manage a single language, the others are generated automatically, and each language gets its own URLs that Google can index. The third is WPML, the leading professional multilingual plugin for WordPress and WooCommerce, with translations reviewed by AI or done by a professional translator. WP Sereno installs, configures and delivers any of the three ready to use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"options\" class=\"wp-block-group band band-mist\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group wrap\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group section-head\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"60\" src=\"https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-300x60.png\" alt=\"WP Sereno - Translate WordPress website\" class=\"wp-image-172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-300x60.png 300w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-1024x205.png 1024w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-768x154.png 768w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-1536x307.png 1536w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eyebrow wp-block-paragraph\">Three options<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose how your website will speak other languages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"lead wp-block-paragraph\">The difference comes down to two things: whether Google can find you in each language, and how much control you want over the translated content.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"how\" style=\"grid-template-columns:repeat(auto-fit,minmax(270px,1fr))\">\n<div class=\"how-card\">\n<h3>1.

Google&#8217;s automatic translation good for SEO?<\/summary><p>No. A translator that translates the page on the fly in the browser doesn&#8217;t create pages Google can index, so you won&#8217;t rank in other languages. If you want to attract visitors from other countries, you need option 2 or option 3.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>How many languages can I add to my website?<\/summary><p>As many as you need. Most clients start with one or two languages for the markets where they already have customers, and expand later.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>Will translating my website affect my current rankings?<\/summary><p>Not if it&#8217;s set up properly. Your main language keeps its URLs, and each new language is added with its own URLs and hreflang tags, so Google shows every user the right version.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>Subdirectory, subdomain or one domain per language?<\/summary><p>For most websites I recommend subdirectories (yoursite.com\/fr\/), because they build on the authority of a single domain and are easier to maintain. Country-specific domains make sense for projects with a dedicated strategy in each market.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>Can a WooCommerce store with many products be translated?<\/summary><p>Yes. With WPML and AI translation, large catalogs can be translated quickly, while the professional translator is reserved for the most important pages and texts.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>Are plugin and service licenses included?<\/summary><p>No, they are purchased separately in your company&#8217;s name, so they always belong to you. I&#8217;ll help you choose the plan you need so you don&#8217;t overpay.<\/p><\/details>\n<details><summary>Who maintains the translations when I update my content?<\/summary><p>You can do it yourself from the dashboard, or leave it to WP Sereno with a <a href=\"https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/en\/wordpress-maintenance\/\">WordPress maintenance plan<\/a>, which includes updates for the multilingual plugins, backups and support.<\/p><\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"contact\" class=\"wp-block-group band band-pine final-cta\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group wrap\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"60\" src=\"https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco-300x60.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-183\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco-300x60.png 300w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco-1024x205.png 1024w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco-768x154.png 768w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco-1536x307.png 1536w, https:\/\/wpsereno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/WP-Sereno-Mantenimiento-de-WordPress-Blanco.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which languages should your website speak?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"lead wp-block-paragraph\">Send me the link to your website or store and the languages you&#8217;re interested in.
