The team wanted to find a way to communicate with innkeepers and grow business in both the US and Europe, two of their central markets. In 2009, they made their first international strides by localizing the site into Italian, French and Spanish.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>More recently, after creating new localization processes, glossaries and style guides, Bevin and team launched the site in German. They decided to tackle the nuts and bolts of their website first, including core marketing and product web pages\u2014from their homepage and sign-up flow to their innkeepers\u2019 travel listings and dashboard. By translating small but significant areas that new users experience first, BedandBreakfast.com was able to quickly grow their membership following launch, noticing quick growth among German speakers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Today, they\u2019re taking their international work a step further by localizing user resources, including innkeeper tips and best practices, city guides, lifecycle emails and other content that aids in acquisition and improved communication with multilingual customers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5>\u201cNight and day\u201d<\/h5>\r\n\r\n<p>Before using Gengo, BedandBreakfast.com relied on other translation companies for their projects. When one of their SEO team members introduced them to Gengo, however, Bevin, who handled the team\u2019s translation vendor relationships, says the switch was \u201ca night and day difference\u201d all around. Not only did content quality improve, but they were able to get projects done much faster while cutting translation costs by over 50%, increasing the overall ROI of their international efforts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n                 <p>Want to learn more about translating for travel? <a href=\"\/travel-translation-guide\">Get our guide<\/a> or <a href=\"\/contact-us\/\">contact us.<\/a><\/p>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;As the person responsible for working directly with our translation providers, switching to Gengo has been the best thing for my productivity.&#8221;","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59046,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7375","customers","type-customers","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
