Which is an example of a multi lingual website?
A multi-lingual website is a website where the content is written in more than one language. The information displayed in different languages is often the same, but maybe tailored for different audiences. Booking.com is an example of a multi-lingual website as its content is available in 35 different languages.
How to have multiple languages on your website?
In order for visitors to benefit from the multiple languages on your site, visitors need to be aware that they exist. To accomplish that, you need to add a front-end language switcher. One way to make your language switcher accessible is to use a floating language switcher that’s always present in the bottom corner of your site.
Where do I put the language switcher on my website?
Place your language switching drop-down in a prominent location on your homepage and every other page of your site. You’ll find multi language websites will have the language switcher in the header or footer of the page. Whatever option you decide to go with for your multilingual site, make sure it’s really easy to find.
