Win more certified translation and interpreting work.

Yes. We explain certification, notarisation and legalisation carefully and never suggest a guarantee that an authority will accept a document. In England there is no state system of sworn translators, so we describe what you actually provide — a signed certification statement, your professional memberships and your experience — rather than borrowing terms that could mislead.

We’re happy for you to review all content before it goes live, and we keep guidance on requirements general so clients are encouraged to check with the authority receiving their documents.

Yes. Local search favours genuine local businesses with strong reviews, and many clients prefer someone they can call, visit or hand original documents to. We help you show that advantage: named translators, real credentials, clear turnaround times and help choosing the right type of translation.

Authority is the plan for multi-office agencies: we build a separate, properly optimised profile for each branch so it can be found by clients in that city. If you work remotely across the UK, we focus instead on your languages and specialisms rather than creating pages for places you have no presence.

Listing your language pairs properly and fixing your profile and directory entries can bring extra certified-document enquiries within a few weeks. Higher map positions and being suggested by AI assistants build more slowly — typically three to six months, depending on how crowded your languages and city are. Business clients often take longer still, because they compare several translators before committing.

No. You are billed monthly, and you can stop at any point by cancelling before the next billing date. The profile, directory entries and links we have built for your translation business are left in place.

Membership of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI) or the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL), and membership of the Association of Translation Companies (ATC) for agencies, are widely recognised. Interpreters working in public services should show registration with the National Register of Public Service Interpreters (NRPSI) if they hold it. Agencies certified to ISO 17100 should say so, along with the specialist fields and language pairs each translator covers.

Guide prices for common certified documents — such as birth, marriage or degree certificates — help clients decide quickly and cut down on quote requests that never convert. For longer or specialist work, explain how you price (per word, per page or per hour) and what affects the cost, such as language pair, deadline and formatting.

Always be clear about extras like urgent turnaround, notarisation, legalisation and postage, so there are no surprises later.

Honestly. Many clients now ask whether you use machine translation, so explain where it can help, where it is unsuitable — such as certified, legal and medical documents — and what human revision involves. If you offer machine translation post-editing, describe it as a separate service with its own price and quality level.

Relationships with immigration advisers, family and conveyancing solicitors, universities, registrars, accountants and local businesses that trade abroad can bring steady referrals. Make it easy for them with fast quotes, clear turnaround times and reliable communication.

Specialising in a few fields, keeping in touch with past business clients and asking happy individual clients for a review once their documents are accepted all help build a reputation that lasts.
