Solution: SaaS Infrastructure for Websites

SaaS infrastructure for websites - Helps companies appear in search results in 109 languages worldwide. As a result, companies gain international potential customers on their websites.   

Client Traffic Before Glocal

Most companies develop their online business primarily in their native language and occasionally translate it into English. This significantly narrows the potential audience reach.

With the help of Glocal

After implementing Glocal, traffic increases significantly, SEO is optimized, and the website starts appearing in search results for new countries in their respective languages, as search engines prioritize locally relevant content.

When the site is translated into the local language, users can access information and purchase products or services in the most comfortable way for them.

How it works

The onboarding process is simple:

1. The company selects languages.
2. Glocal translates and optimizes all content and launches the website on a local subdomain.
3. Done! The company attracts users to the website from around the world.

Pricing

Glocal offers three pricing tiers, which differ in the amount of website content and additional features:

- Starter: $50 per month per language ($500 per year per language)   
- Essential: $150 per month per language ($1,500 per year per language)   
- Enterprise: $500 per month per language ($5,000 per year per language)

This way, a company can have automatic website support for, for example, 10 languages for just $500 per month or $1,500 per month, making it an affordable monthly expense for some companies. For others, the $5,000 per month for the Enterprise package may still be a reasonable investment as it allows them to expand their international presence across 10 languages.
