How To Get German Translation Online

QUESTION:Hi joy,

How can we get good quality German translation online? I need to contact my business contacts in German regularly.

While most of them speak pretty good English, it would be handy to have English to German and German to English translation service available online that’s fast and low cost.

Can you recommend website or websites that can handle small projects like mine? Thanks a lot.

ANSWER:Dear Richard,

Thanks for your question. It’s interesting how costomers often come in droves when a business speaks the same language of its target market. While there are free language translation tools online, it is always better to have human translation services for your business needs.

If you are simply looking for German word translation, there are plenty of tools online and they are all free. Most people I’ve talked to seem to feel there’s no absolute winner among free online translation tools.

But the most popular one seems to be Google Translate. If you are looking for human German translation online, and are willing to go beyond free, you may have a few choices:

1- You can go to sites such as translatorscafe.com or guru.com

You can post your job request or requests online and list all your instructions. Such instructions can range from how much you are willing to pay to what qualifications you are looking for in the translator who takes on your particular project.

If your job request is reasonable, you may get many translators to bid for the project.

Then you just pick one that you feel most suitable for your job. You may have to arrange payment method yourself and sometimes that could be a pain in the neck for both the service provider and you who require the German translation online.

2- You can go to sites such as fiverr.com

I’ve talked about his site on another page 3 ways to get English Spanish translation online
.

This site and other similar ones seem to be the new trend of buying and selling freelance projects. These micro job sites have been growing at extremely rapid speed in the past few years.

At Fiverr.com sellers list what they are willing to do for 5 bucks and buyers can go through all these offers in a specific niche. Say, you look for someone who is willing to do German to English translation service, you’ll have tons of choices.

If you can’t find anything that fits your need, you can make a particular request. Most often there will be freelancers answering your post.

There are other similar sites such as gigblaster.com where projects can be done from $2 to $2000. On this site, sellers, also called service providers, list their services in great details with a clear price tag attached.

As a buyer, you probably don’t even have to list your job at all before finding the perfect match for your project.

These micro job websites are superb for smaller projects such as yours. Both sellers and buyers have to register before doing any deals on the site. With Paypal services, sellers get paid automatically as soon as a project is completed.

It eliminates the hassle and stress for both parties involved in the transaction.

Check out these websites and you may just find the perfect place to get German translation online.

Good luck,

Joy
