"WPML, Easy Translation Manager for WordPress, Google Language Translator, Multilingual Press Here's a riddle for you: how can you create a very appealing site with a responsive design that still sends your visitors away at first glance? As the Internet is becoming more accessible around the world, more eyes will be on your site. And if your visitors don't understand English, they are going to look for a way to translate your copy (I guess I should have given you a longer time to ponder the riddle).

Remember that the many people in the United States use English as a second-language and would much prefer to read something in their native language… So in the spirit of continuing my series of reviewing my favorite plugins, let's take a look at some of the best language translation plugins that the WordPress community has to offer."

"In the previous tutorial I showed you how to style the posts on your main blog page according to their category, creating color coding by category. A lot of sites that use this technique also take it further by adding distinct styling to each section of their site, in a way that co-ordinates with the styling on the main blog page or home page.
