Added a translator plugin to some of my blogs
Last week I installed a new Wordpress plugin on two of my blogs. I decided that it was time that I made it easy for my site visitors to see translated versions of my blog posts since I have visitors on those two particular blogs from a number of different countries. So I installed the Wordpress plugin Google Translate.
Looking at my web stats for the two blogs that I’m using this plugin on so far it seems to be a hit. Several of my visitors are using the translator to translate my posts each day.
Perhaps by adding this feature to my blogs it will help draw in a few new visitors each day, ones who’s first language is not English.
Have you tried using a translator on your sites? If so, did it help increase site traffic at all?
BTW if you are going to use a translator on your site, the translations have a much better chance of being correct if you try to use proper grammar and spelling in your posts. Just an FYI.

All it did was add confusion to my site. I actually had a German guy tell me that I should remove it because the “de” translations were all messed up.

I don´t recommend you to do that cause those plugins have a lot of issues with semantic, and if a spanish reader ask you something in spanish ¿what you do?
So just in english,is less confusing.
