Rate Schedule and Billing Policies Translation Services Since our servers support multiple languages, in developing client projects we've added translation services to our in-house capabilities. Whether for your web-based application or some other final use let us quote your translation jobs to give you an idea of how painless this process can be. Rates are $35/hr for actual translation time, web-based applications are available as add-on for your site following our normal programming schedule. Our current capabilities are English to: Japanese, French, Spanish, Romanian, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, and back. We're hoping to add Russian soon. An often overlooked but very important service is proof-reading. For example, if you have a Japanese site, which your in-house staff translates to English, we're happy to review for true fluency and proper spelling and word usage. Our translators are all college-graduates with fluency in spoken and written word in their respective specialty. Interested in joining this team? Send us an email with your background and language specialty and we'll forward some literature for you to translate and return.
