Website translation, Spanish to English and English to Spanish
Your site in English and Spanish, for tourists, expats and customers abroad, each page in its own language and ready for Google. From ₡15,000 + VAT per page.
If your customers are in Costa Rica and abroad, a site in only one language leaves people out. An English-only site loses Costa Rican customers who search in Spanish; a Spanish-only site loses tourists, expats and foreign buyers. And an automatic translator in the corner of the page doesn't win anyone over: it shows, it gets your industry's terms wrong, and Google doesn't show it in searches in the other language. What works is each page in its own language, written for the person who will read it.
What's included
- Adapted, not literal, translation: we keep the meaning and tone, and adapt examples, measurements, currencies and references that don't read the same elsewhere.
- Your business's terms agreed with you, so they are used the same way across the site.
- One address per language, for example yourbusiness.com/es/, so Google shows each person the right version.
- Google titles and descriptions in each language, written for what people actually search in that language, which isn't always the literal translation.
- Links between versions (hreflang) and a clear language switch.
- Forms, emails and confirmation messages translated too.
Which sites it's for
Tourism, lodging and tours; real estate; medical and dental services for patients from abroad; services for expats (legal, accounting, relocation); companies that export or sell online abroad; and foreign companies that want to reach Costa Rican customers in Spanish.

Frequently asked questions
Do you use machine translation?
We use tools to work faster, but every text is reviewed and corrected by a person who knows both languages and your business. The result reads as if it were written in that language, not translated.
Can my current site be translated?
In most cases, yes. If your platform doesn't handle several languages well, we tell you before we start; sometimes it's worth combining it with a redesign or migration.
