OnTheGoSystems and WPML

OnTheGoSystems, the company that created the WordPress plugin, started operating in 2007 by offering translation and website services. After years of experience, OnTheGoSystems developed WPML, the market-leading WordPress multilingual plugin currently installed on more than 1,500,000 WordPress websites that can translate your website content into more than 65 languages.

By simply installing the WPML plugin on your WordPress and doing a quick setup, you’ll be able to translate your pages, posts, custom types, taxonomy, menus and even theme texts. WPML can also be configured with some of the most relevant WordPress plugins such as WooCommerce for e-commerce and, in the field of SEO, The SEO Framework, SEOPress and Rank Math SEO.

In short, Parlam’s partnership with WPML to connect with WordPress, the most widely used CMS on the planet, ensures that, among other advantages, time to market of internationalization of your sites is taken up a notch.
