The Translation Process
Each translation project is different, and depending on the type of document, the target market, subject area and deadline, the process will vary. Communication is key and projects can be tailored to your needs and budget. These are the 4 core elements included as standard for all translation projects:
1
I will work with you to understand your exact needs & research the subject area, the target market, competition and any other information that will help with the production of the translation.
Research
3
Proofreading, editing and repeating until I am happy with the final text. I like to work closely with my clients at this stage to discuss any questions to ensure the highest quality of translation is produced in line with your needs.
Quality Assurance
2
I don't translate word-for-word, but instead apply a sense-for-sense approach to recreate your texts into natural & native English, whilst applying the knowledge gained from my research.

Once I have carried out the quality assurance process I will deliver the translation to you in the agreed format within the agreed deadline. I will ask you to check you are happy with everything and send you the final invoice.

German to English Tourism Translation
From the breathtaking peaks of the highest mountains in the Swiss Alps down to the cosy mountain villages nestled in the valleys of Austria - I help businesses in the travel and tourism industry introduce themselves to a new market by translating their content into English.
As a translator, hiker & travel-lover, my fascination for the mountains fuels my ability to write compelling translations and content for clients based in the forest and alpine regions, as well as national parks and other places of outstanding natural beauty in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
Some examples of the types of tourism translation I work on:
​
-
Website Translation: Do you want to make your website available in English to widen your audience, increase visits and boost your online presence? Then I can translate your German website content so that it welcomes an English-speaking audience in a natural, native and search engine optimised way.
-
Brochures & Promotional Translation: Are you only targeting German speakers with your content? If so, there are 3 times more English speakers than German speakers and a high percentage of tourists are either native English speakers or communicate in English when travelling. I can translate your brochures and promotional content into English to make sure you are maximising your businesses potential.
-
Blog Posts: Blog posts are a great way to boost your website's SEO if you are keeping it up to date, however only having it available in German might be having a negative effect on your reach. Translating it into English and keeping it up to date in English can give your website that much-needed boost!
-
Travel Writing & Articles: Maybe you have a company magazine in German, or you are an established travel writer who writes feature articles, well why not get yourself out there in English and expand your readership! I translate all types of articles from German into English.
-
Service Listings: Do you list your service on websites such as Booking.com or AirBnB? Then I can help optimise your listing in English to boost those bookings!
-
Product Listings: If you sell products online, for example on platforms such as Amazon or Ebay, I can translate and optimise these to ensure the products are being found by a wider audience.
-
And much more: Get in touch if you have something you want translated into English.
German to English Legal Translation
All types of businesses need to make sure they are legally compliant and ensure that their backs are covered, especially in the travel & tourism industry. Make sure your terms and conditions, privacy policies, contractual agreements and any other legal documents relevant to the running of your business can be understood by those using your services, visiting your premises, or entering into any contracts with you. Translating your legal documents from German into English will make these documents more accessible and avoid any misunderstandings.
