How can I edit machine translations?

You can edit your machine translations through your Weglot Dashboard. Either through the Translations List or Visual editor, add teammates, edit the translations yourself or add your own translators to make quick edits to any translation displayed on your website.

With Weglot you also have the option to order professional translations directly inside the Weglot Dashboard. Choose from machine translation, human editing, or a mixture of both.

Where do my translations exist?

Your translations are stored by Weglot, accessible through your Weglot Dashboard, and not in your CMS. This gives you an easier overview of all your translations through a simple interface, avoiding the issue of giving access to your CMS backend.

What’s the difference between Weglot and Google Translate, DeepL, Yandex and Microsoft?

Machine translation providers take care of translation only. They do not display the translations on your website, you will need to work with your development/IT team to do that. You will also be required to gather all the content of your website and manually copy and paste it into the machine translation provider. They also don’t offer any built in editing platform to make any manual edits.

Weglot connects directly with a machine translation provider and automatically detects, translates, and displays the content of your website, giving you full editing control over your translations.

Weglot also provides key multilingual SEO features such as displaying your multilingual website under language specific subdomains or subdirectories and adding hreflang tags.
