Multicultural Marketing through a multifunctional platform
First of all, let’s start by answering an important question...
What’s the meaning of life?
Ooops... sorry. Let’s try again.
Who am I?

When talking about “multicultural marketing”,
first thing that comes to mind is...
Language
Multilingual site vs.
Multisite
A multilingual site requires the use of several languages
within the same site.
A tool to build an efficient multilanguage site:qTranslate Plugin
Allows different languages in one simple WP installation
One-click switching between languages
SEO integration
Unique URLs
• ?lang=en• /en/• en.yoursite.com
Why a multisite then?
•Content starts the same but it evolves differently•Comments•User-engaging activities (ex. poll, contest, sweepstakes...)•Specific promos based on location/language
Some reasons to consider
Translationvs.
Transcreation: a copywriting challenge
•Translation is a plain reproduction of another language.•Transcreation is a full representation of the meaning, beyond a literal interpretation.
A -maybe too simplified- differentiation
Social Media integrationand how it affects multilingual sites
We like “likes” in every language
•Language adapts to your social network preference•Live streams from Facebook or Twitter show fresh content
•Don’t mix languages: double the effort, double the reward•Integration between blog/site and social media
•Perfect connection helps increase all fan bases•Recommended plugins:
•Share This•Share and Follow•Sociable
