One of the hottest sites on the Web is AltaVista’s Babel Fish translation page. It works with SYSTRAN translation software, and you can go right to the source and set up your very own translation system. Anyone who’s serious about e-commerce must deal with the fact that the World Wide Web is just that — a global setup. Your storefront is an international business, and although English is widely spoken, it’s hardly the only language in the world.

With SYSTRAN translation software working on your site, visitors quickly translate your pages among more than half a dozen major Western languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. And SYSTRAN doesn’t stop there. The service also includes Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Russian. So hurry up already and pop into SYSTRAN’s Web site. The whole world is waiting. Run — don’t walk — to www.systransoft.com.
