Clonable is a tool to copy, possibly translate and maintain a Web site. How does that sound? With the Clonable tool you can, for example, very easily clone a Dutch (.nl) website to a Belgian (.be) website. But also translate your German webshop to, for example, Danish and place it on a .dk domain. The website remains exactly the same, without the risk of plagiarism according to search engines. Not even if you do not add a translation in our system. You choose which elements you modify for the cloned website. For example, you can replace the logo and/or Dutch keywords for Flemish keywords. Or change a certain German translation because you prefer a certain jargon on your German website. More advantages of the Clonable tool can be found below.

Cloning a Web site to another area has three major advantages:

1. Cost-saving. Normally, copying and translating a site or web shop costs an enormous amount of money. With Clonable, it's only a fraction of that.
2. Time-saving. Normally it takes months to translate a fairly large website, let alone a very large web shop with tens of thousands of products. With Clonable, you can go live in a week.
3. As good as maintenance-free. There is no hassle of keeping up with foreign content, new content is automatically cloned AND translated. There is no extra hosting and you only need to maintain one dashboard/backend for two or more sites (useful for stock management, for example).

In addition, a few other benefits...

1. SEO optimization. Through Clonable you are simply findable with your product or service in more countries or among non-native speakers in your own country. Moreover, due to the time and cost savings, you have more time and money left to work on this.
2. Conversion optimization | your foreign customer feels more at home in his own personalized environment.
3. Adwords savings | You can advertise with a unique site in its own language, which improves the quality score and therefore can provide cost savings.
4. Quality. Although human translators obviously provide even better translations in many cases, Clonable is much better than Google Translate in terms of quality. The cost and time savings also mean that a translator can quickly bring the site up to a near-perfect level for visitors by reviewing the most important pages, menus, etc. and adapting them where necessary.

The localization possibilities with Clonable are great. You can clone virtually any domain.

* For the highlighted languages, translation quality is not yet as high as for the others.

No, cloning or translating a site is not same thing! Cloning a website does not automatically mean that it will also be translated. However, most clients want this and opt for a clone with translation. A cloned website without translation is also possible and offers many advantages. It serves to reach a specific area with the same language and ensures that your website is ranked higher in the search results of that region. However, it is possible to adjust certain keywords to fit the target audience (localization).

Clonable has more advantages than simply translating a website with Google Translate.

1. A big advantage is that it gives you an additional domain through Clonable, which the search engines index. For example, with a .de domain you can be found in Germany. Google Translate is not indexed by Google, so you won't gain any additional customers.
2. Google Translate translates the entire page, but changes are not possible. With Clonable it is possible to make changes after the translations, both in terms of text and, for example, changing images, logos or preference settings. Check out our Knowledgebase for more information about all the possibilities.
3. Google Translate's translations are really not always good. Ours are many times better. Especially since they can also be checked and corrected by a proofreader. You can hire one through us or find one yourself.
4. A Google Translate button on your website looks fairly unprofessional.
5. With a cloned website through Clonable, you can advertise or employ marketing strategies with this website (and thus this foreign domain), this cannot be done with Google Translate.

Linking a page is not the same as cloning with Clonable. When you clone the page, you can customize it to the look and feel and keywords of the country or region. This makes your website better found by search engines and makes the customer feel more at home on your website.

For languages with the Latin alphabet, the translation quality is 95-97% anyway. For languages with the Cyrillic script, it is at least 93%. For other languages, such as Japanese and Chinese, we were even less able to define this quality. We estimate it to be at least 90%. We always recommend going through a few things carefully:

• Menu titles: due to the limited number of words, some words may still be substituted with the wrong synonym.
• Homepages and other very important pages.
• General terms and conditions and other legal documents.

Quality is easily upgraded to 98-99% with our Clonable tool, through our super simple editor and our substition rules. A proofreader will be able to improve the site very quickly. All in all, even with proofreader you will spend significantly less money than if you have everything translated and entered manually.

The cloned website does not have its own back-end, as it is a live copy of just the frontend. Any changes in the back-end of the original site will automatically be shown on the translated clone.
