| Social Networking and Online Dating Language Solutions
At their heart, social networking and online dating Web sites are very relationship oriented: the “product” is the online customer (or Web site member), who is directly involved in “packaging” and virtually “delivering” personal content to another customer. As a result, localization challenges for such a site are very different from traditional multilingual commercial Web applications. Cost-effectively serving such Web content globally, while preserving individual target locale protocols of interactive dating and romance, requires a highly specialized team.
The tone of communications and standards for appropriate social demeanor in social networking and online dating can be radically different in Asian markets from what is considered the norm in Western markets. Pull down menus with gender and pronouns can prove to be surprisingly complex in some languages.
Many online dating or social networking Web sites have databases of hobbies, professions, memberships, etc. to help flesh out a user’s profile. ENLASO can advise you when additional content (e.g. new professions) are appropriate for new target locales. Our linguistic input will help ensure that your Web site is culturally appropriate for all of your intended locales.
All of these issues can best be addressed with the proper consulting to ensure that your social Web application is properly internationalized before being localized for all locales. ENLASO is your ideal localization partner to address and remedy all of these issues.
