Deliver web experiences in any language

Websites, Web Apps, and Landing pages, The Global Delivery Network (GDN) is the fastest, most cost effective way to deploy any web experience, everywhere!

Global Delivery Network

How it Works

Capture, Translate, Deploy

Once Smartling’s Global Delivery Network is configured, content can flow seamlessly from your website into Smartling for translation. After the content is translated, any request for a localized version of your website will deliver instant results to your customer in their native language.

Maintaining your translation quality with the GDN is a breeze. We guarantee a 99.99% uptime, so you don’t have to worry about bleedthrough. Changes to website copy in your source language are automatically detected and surfaced instantly for translation.

Not only is the Global Delivery Network SEO compatible, it detects and rewrites links so that the user stays on a localized version of your website for a seamless customer experience.

Translation Automated

Smartling's GDN Crawler

Smartling’s GDN Crawler automatically scans websites to detect new content for translation, thus reducing source language bleed through. Gone are the days of partially-localized experiences for your customers.

Pairing the GDN Crawler with Smartling’s automation tools eliminates the need to manage your content approval queue. Simply schedule when and where the Crawler should ingest content, and let it work its magic.

Translations will always be current, even for dynamic or interactive content. The Crawler loads pages like your customers' browsers, capturing changes in text, including those powered by Javascript.

With support for flexible schedules, filters to narrow scope, and advanced features like custom connection headers, the GDN Crawler quickly adapts to various deployment environments.
