How to Choose a Certified Translation Website

With so many websites on the internet offering translations, how do you know which of them to trust?  Here are some things to look for (these apply to any e-marketing website):

1. - Does the website make hard to believe statements, such as "thousands sold every week?"   This statement may be fine if you are looking to buy hamburgers or toothbrushes, but if you are want to order a certified translation, the statement may be a little hard to believe.  Be wary!

2. - Is the company licensed to do business?  If it is not licensed, it is probably doing business illegally.  Be wary!

3. - Is the company accredited by the Better Business Bureau?  Does it display the "BBB Accredited Business" interactive logo?  If so, you can be assured that the business is legitimate...and also it is licensed to do business.  If not, be wary!

4. - Does the website offer a secure ordering process?  If not, don't do business with them at all!!  If they do offer a secure ordering process, check to find out if the website is PCI DSS 6.6 compliant.  If so, you can be 100% confident that your personal and credit card information will be safe.  If not, be wary.

5 - Can you contact the company either by telephone or chat?  If you can only contact them by email or if you call and you always get a recording (during business hours), stay away!

6 - Do you know exactly how much your translation will cost before you order?  If not, be wary!  Be sure to read all of the fine print.  Some companies offer "per page" pricing, but the fine print states that this means only up to 250 words per page.  If your pages have more than 250 words, you'll be charged more.
