Professional Translation Services for Your Business

Welcome to my page! - Every translation is individual and depends on the context of the source. Therefore I reference the norm DIN 2345 for my translations. In the views of many professionals, this is the best quality standard for producing translations although the norm has officially been replaced by the new DIN EN 15038. For this reason, my work still follows that standard which primarily refers to the communication between client and translator. I need to know the context of the translation and its source in order to meet your needs. Please let me know such details for your translation(s) when submitting your proposal.

Editing / Proofreading, Text Design

My services in the field of editing include checks for spelling, style, grammar and content improving your texts and translations - with focus on your target group.

- Proofreading
Spelling and grammar check of your target text.

- Text Design, Homepage Improvement
I may optimize the text(s) and translation(s) of your homepage visually in order to make it more attractive and inviting for your customers. Sample page: Komplettradlager GmbH

SEO, Search Engine Optimization, Keywords, "white hat" - Strategy

I optimize your texts, if necessary, with regard to SEO / search engines and I take into account relevant keyword lists from your industry. These keywords are read by search engines like Google or Yahoo for their ranking. Following a "white hat"-strategy, these keywords may also be the basis for further OnPage / OffPage-optimizing with your IT-Manager / administrator.

- call to action
This modern marketing concept is available for certain types of text - also in combination with text design.

Request Information

For editing and / or a translation, I require the following information from you:

Language direction (DE / AE / BE), subject area, type of the target text, target audience and contact person alongside your desired deadline and features. Glossaries and styleguides are welcome.

Free Quotes, Fair and Clear Pricing

I offer a free sample translation from your text (max. one page). This allows you to peruse my translation before contracting my services. The sample translation incurs no costs or obligations on your behalf. Furthermore, it includes all the benefits of the official translation such as length, level of difficulty, type of text, and your proposed deadline.

Status Reports

You are welcome to get a free report that includes the translation in progress and a glossary, if desired. This allows quick access to the status of your translation.
In the case where a full translation is not needed, you may receive a summary of the original text that gives you the key elements and allows you to know what it is about. Summaries are also a package offer that is less costly than a full translation.

My Credo

Producing professionally edited translations in order to help enterprises offer their best possible products and services.


I look forward to partnering with you to achieve your goals. Easily, you can get an individual consultation free of charge - just contact me.


Yours Faithfully
Oliver Ehrhardt, Magister Artium
