Thomas Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 I'm webmaster of Kameleon Percussion (www.kameleonpercussie.be) and our site is in Dutch (the official language in Belgium) and English. My question is: in how many and in what languages does an international site have to be? Only in English, only in the official language, English and the official language, all the official languages (we have Dutch, French and German in Belgium), ... ? Post your thought!

Smudge Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 Normally a website should be at least in Dutch and English...Belgium's a bit special, so in theory our website should be in the 3 official +1 officious languages, that's French, Dutch, German and English...

Smudge Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Lol, are you a volulunteer to translate?? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamoline Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 well, I guess the main concern is who you want as your target audience. no point in making a page in a language if no one's gonna read it. the international languages though are something like english, french, spanish, chinese, arabic.. and something else..

Thomas Posted January 7, 2004 Author Share Posted January 7, 2004 I think everyone, that doesn't speak Dutch, who visits our site knows English... So for the moment we keep the two languages. If anyone speaks another language than Dutch or English, wants to volunteer to translate and thinks a lot of people that speak that language would visit our site, you can contact me.
