Nowadays we are spoiled by choice, and the same applies to choosing a translation agency. There are so many out there that sometimes it's very difficult to know even where to start! But choosing the right language service for you or your business is crucial, after all you'll want to find one with real credibility.

These days Google even offers a free translation service, so you could go down that route, but if you're serious about this endeavor it will probably be wise to stick with a tried and tested company.

The first step most people will take when looking for a service like this would be to look online. A simple Google search for the term translation agency and you'll find your screen absolutely swamped with results. Firstly check out the ones that are in your local area, and if possible pop into the offices of these firms and see what their pricing structure is, or even if you can get a better deal.

That should be your first port of call, but if this isn't possible, or the agencies in your area aren't up to scratch then you'll have to cast your net much further afield. Luckily there are plenty of large online language services, so again check those out and see what offer the best service and prices.

You could also see what translation agency your peers, business colleagues or online reviews have to say about each company. After all reading a real person's thought on services is the best way to gauge how good the company is and how successful they can be for your business. Once you've chosen the right service for you then you can sit back, relax and let them do the work for you!

If you were to go down the free route of online language services such as Google translate you may not have as much luck! These are great free tools, but nothing compared to a dedicated translation agency. At the end of the day it depends what you need these language services for. If you need to translate a large amount of text for a product range or your business as a whole then I wouldn't go down the Google translate road.

However if you only need a few documents changed then this could be a real option. Google's language service certainly isn't' perfect but it can do the job for free. You'll have to double some of the phrases but all in all it can be a very accurate and cost effective tool. If you do still only need a free tool then check for other services online and see which one translates your material best.

To conclude a dedicated translation agency is the best and most accurate way to use multi-lingual platforms, but don't forget about the free options as well. It all depends on what you need the service for and how much money you have to spend. If you're a small business then an online free service should definitely be considered!
