Reasons to Have Professional Book Translation Services
Using professional book translation services is highly recommended because:
Widen Audience Reach
Reaching a wider audience is valuable for authors when introducing their books to global audiences. They can translate the original language of their books into many different new languages appropriate for different contexts in different countries.
Increase Sales and Rankings
A more significant number of audiences increases revenue and compliments the author for a valuable book. Highly-rated books and best-sellers should be available in most languages. This will increase the popularity and love of the audience for the book.
Enjoy Reduced Competition
Authors who have access to translation will find it easy to introduce their books to an international audience. This will be more beneficial in competing as well as reaching potential audiences while others do not approach the translation in advance.
Book Translation Services Q&A
We analyze numerous factors affecting book translation prices to get an exact estimate for a book translation project:
– Project capacity: We usually give per-word or per-character price. Our translation rates are based on the word count or character count.
– Service required: The prices will depend on your translation option. A translation option that needs more steps will cost a higher price. According to your budget and requirements, you can choose among these plans: Translation Only (TO), Translation and Editing (TE), or Translation + Editing + Proofreading (TEP).
– Industry expertise: Any need for the translator’s unique knowledge may impact the cost. Special expertise is frequently associated with a thorough understanding of a field and a thorough command of its vocabulary.
