​Have you come across a website that you struggle to understand, because it's in another language? Perhaps a blog you are interested in? Our audience is worldwide and multilingual, therefore we decided to do a blog post to give you tips to overcome a language barrier online. It will work with any language on all websites.

​You can browse an entire website in the chosen language using this method, and even change languages as you browse.

Beware, Google Translate isn’t perfect. It does have a good reputation for accuracy, but it also makes mistakes. Use it with caution. It works fine for casual browsing of websites.

To translate an entire website using Google Translate, follow these steps and see pictures below for reference:
  1. Open a web browser and go to translate.google.com.
    You don’t need a Google account to access it.
  2. On the left select the language the website is in originally. I found that detecting automatically sometimes doesn't work as well.
  3. In the text box on the left, type in the entire URL (including the http://) of the website you want to view.
  4. On the right, choose the language you want to see the website in.
  5. Click Translate.

    It also works using mobile browsers. (But not in the Google Translate App)

Step 1. Select language on the left. Step 2. Paste the website URL on the left Step 3. Select the desired language on the right And GO

You can browse the entire website in that language by clicking links on the site — as long as you stay within the Google Translate user interface. The Translate toolbar at the top enables you to do a couple of other things:

  • From the To drop-down menu, you can change the translation language on the fly.
  • Next to View, you can toggle back and forth between the translated website and the site in its original language.

You may wonder why some words and phrases are not translated. Google Translate translates only the actual text on a page. Any text that appears in an image is not translated. 

We hope you enjoyed this post.
