What is currently the best option for setting up multiple languages on a Webflow website that is SEO-friendly, client-friendly, user-friendly, low-cost, and plays well with CMS, @foxy and 1000+ products? Can this option be adapted to Webflow's own upcoming multilingual solution?
When it comes to setting up multiple languages on a Webflow website that meets all the criteria of being SEO-friendly, client-friendly, user-friendly, low-cost, and works well with CMS, @foxy, and a large number of products, the best option currently available is to use a third-party integration called Weglot.
Here is a breakdown of why Weglot is a top choice:
SEO-friendly: Weglot ensures that your translated content is indexed by search engines by creating separate URLs for each language version of your website. This means that search engines can crawl and rank your translated content, improving your website's visibility and reach to a multilingual audience.
Client-friendly: Weglot offers a user-friendly interface that allows clients to easily manage and update translated content without the need for technical knowledge. It provides a dashboard where clients can access and modify translations, giving them full control over their website's multilingual functionality.
User-friendly: Weglot provides a language switcher that allows visitors to switch between different language versions of your website effortlessly. Users can navigate through the site in their preferred language, resulting in a seamless user experience.
Low-cost: Weglot offers a range of pricing plans that cater to different needs, including a free plan for small websites with limited content. The pricing is transparent, and you only pay for the features and amount of translated content you require, making it a cost-effective solution.
CMS and @foxy integration: Weglot seamlessly integrates with the Webflow CMS and @foxy, ensuring that your translated content and e-commerce functionality are fully supported. This means that you can efficiently manage your translated product pages, blog posts, and other dynamic content within Webflow.
Regarding Webflow's own upcoming multilingual solution, it is currently in development and not yet released. While it is exciting to see Webflow working on their native multilingual feature, it is not yet clear how it will compare to existing third-party solutions like Weglot. It remains to be seen if Webflow's solution will offer the same level of SEO optimization, client-friendliness, user-friendliness, and flexibility with CMS integrations. However, once Webflow's native multilingual solution is released, it may provide an alternative worth considering depending on your specific needs and preferences.
