Most website translation tools look similar on the surface — paste a script, get translations. But dig deeper, and you'll find word limits, language caps, missing quality controls, and surprise invoices. MotaWord Active is built differently.

Most website translation tools charge based on how many words you translate or how many translated page views you serve. That means the more successful your multilingual site becomes — the more traffic you get, the more content you publish — the more you pay. Your bill grows with your success, and it's hard to predict what next month will cost.
MotaWord Active uses flat, predictable pricing. You know exactly what you'll pay every month, regardless of how much traffic your translated pages get or how often your content changes. No per-word charges, no page view meters, no usage-based surprises.
Some tools offer one language on their starter plan and charge extra for each additional language. Others cap you at three or five languages until you upgrade to a premium tier. If you're targeting multiple markets, the cost adds up fast.
MotaWord Active supports 65+ languages, with multiple languages available even on the entry-level paid plans. You don't need an enterprise contract to translate your site into Arabic, Chinese, and German simultaneously.
Here's where most website translation tools fall short: they give you machine translation, maybe a basic editor to fix things yourself, and that's it. If you want professional human translation, you're on your own — find an agency, manage the workflow, upload files back and forth, and hope everything stays in sync.
MotaWord Active is part of the MotaWord platform — a professional translation service trusted by thousands of businesses worldwide. That means professional human translation and post-editing are available directly from your dashboard, with one click. No external vendors, no file juggling, no disconnected workflows.
Most website translation tools do one thing: translate your website. That's it. If you also need to translate documents, localize your mobile app, handle legal contracts, or produce multilingual video content, you need a completely different vendor for each.
MotaWord is a full localization platform. Your website translations share the same translation memory, glossaries, and professional translators as your document translations, software localization, video translations, and DTP projects. Everything works together.
Many website translation tools gate their best features behind enterprise tiers — SEO optimization, advanced URL structures, professional translation access, or analytics. With MotaWord Active, the feature set is the same across plans. You choose a plan based on scale (languages and pages), not based on which features you need.
Here's what you get out of the box:
Edit translations directly on your live website, not in a spreadsheet
Hreflang tags, canonical URLs, translated meta tags, structured data, Open Graph
Pop-ups, modals, wizards, single-page apps, infinite scroll
Alt text, image swaps, video source mapping, Schema.org metadata
Translate third-party widgets, forms, and embeds via server-side rendering
Track traffic by language, country, and page
Widget design, URL structure, RTL support, translation rules, variable protection
Shared across your entire MotaWord account
For SEO and performance on critical pages
No feature is locked behind a higher tier. If it's in the product, it's in your plan.
When something goes wrong with your multilingual website, you need help now — not in 24-48 hours after submitting a ticket. Many tools offer email-only support or reserve live support for enterprise customers.
MotaWord provides 24/7 live chat and email support on every plan — including the free one. Real people, not chatbots. Whether it's a technical integration question, a translation quality concern, or a billing issue, you get the same level of support regardless of what you're paying.
If you run more than one website — a marketing site, a product app, a help center, regional microsites — most tools make you buy a separate subscription for each one, or push you to an expensive enterprise plan.
With MotaWord Active, you can run multiple projects under one account. Use separate projects for different sites, or even for staging and production environments of the same site. Your translation memory and glossary are shared across all of them — so work done on one site benefits the others.
Yes. Install the MotaWord Active script on your site, and your content is detected automatically. If you have existing translations from another tool, our team can help you migrate them into your translation memory so you don't lose any previous work.
Professional translation and post-editing are separate services with their own per-word pricing — but they're integrated directly into your Active dashboard. You don't need a separate vendor or workflow. Machine translation is included in your Active subscription at no extra cost.
Correct. MotaWord Active doesn't meter translated page views or "words served." Your pricing is based on the number of languages and pages in your plan, not on how much traffic your translated site receives.
MotaWord Active follows Google's multilingual SEO best practices out of the box — hreflang tags, canonical URLs, language-specific URL paths, translated meta tags, structured data, and Open Graph tags. Server-side rendering is available for pages where search engine visibility is critical. See our multilingual SEO page for details.
That's where MotaWord really stands apart. Your Active subscription lives inside the MotaWord platform, which also offers document translation, software localization, video translation, DTP services, and more. Everything shares the same translation memory and glossary, so your brand stays consistent across all content types.
Yes. There's a free plan that lets you translate up to 5 pages in one language — no credit card required, no time limit. Paid plans come with a 14-day free trial.
MotaWord Active works with any website that can include a JavaScript snippet — WordPress, Shopify, Drupal, Squarespace, and Wix, among others. We also support any custom-built site. There's also an npm library for deeper integrations.
We will be more than happy to answer any and all your questions. And we would gladly set up a live demo for your organization with one of our colleagues. All you need to do is reach out to us.
