While Translation Happens

The core work happens here. A professional linguist gets started with the work and transforms the content into exactly how a native speaker and reader would love to read it.

  1. Proofreading is done by the translator itself, also known as “self-check.”
  2. Editing was done by a senior linguist who goes through the entire text and adds 30-40% to the actual price
  3. Final proofreading by a professional proof-reader who checks every minute detail like punctuations, spellings, grammar, etc. and adds a cost of 15-20%

Post Translation Is Done

After the core work of translating the document is done, the formatting, layout, file type, fonts, line breaking, etc. are all put in a proper format to make the document look visually appealing and well-integrated.

BUT WHY RELY ON A TRANSLATION AGENCY WHEN A GOOGLE TRANSLATOR IS MUCH MORE COST-EFFICIENT AND DOES A DECENT JOB?

There is undoubtedly a lot of automated machine translation software or applications available which do a decent job. And because they are considered cost-effective, people usually prefer going with these applications to save extra bucks, which they may have to incur out of pocket if they avail of services from translation agency services.

However, there exists a massive gap in terms of readability and clear understanding. And this gap, only a human translator would be able to catch and rectify.

An automated translator may be cent percent error-free and grammatically sound, but what is the point of translation if the readers cannot connect the content?

The main benefit of running your content through a human eye is that the translator can translate precisely what needs to be instead of literal translation, which software does. It improves the readability and also delivers the exact message which the writer intends to put across.

HOW MUCH DOES A TRANSLATION AGENCY COSTS FOR ITS TRANSLATION SERVICES?

Though there isn’t any standard cost or price for the translation services, it depends on various factors and from professionals to professionals.

Some may be new to the business and are freelancing; some may have tie-ups with a company that provides translation services, some may be a professional freelancer, and some may come from a translation agency, etc.

On top of that, it also depends on the cost of living they might have; region-wise, it does depend. Depending on these factors, the cost may be cheap or rocket up.

When it comes to translation agencies, it makes sure to provide a premium service. And so it’s not just the cost of translation but also multiple proofreading and editing as well. Adding to this, the article’s length is also a factor that makes a difference in the price. Usually, the texts can be short, long, technical, creative, informational, etc., so depending on the type of text, the price may also differ.

Also, because agencies work in profits, they keep a profit margin to the rates they pay to the translators. Once all of this is completed, a final DTP testing is done, post which the document is submitted to the client for review.
