Title: Multi-language Title
Post by: MpakARTstudio on January 16, 2019, 10:32
While keywords are automatically translated in search, this does not apply to the titles. Has anyone done tests of using the same word but in different languages ​​in the title to cover larger markets? Actually, this is not a title spam because the system does not index it as a same word and does not affect the results by damaging the other contributors.

For example: "Love , Liebe , Amore , Любить , 爱 " .

Has anyone done tests with this for better visibility and the results are positive or negative?

I have done that with editorial pictures from my country which is Spanish speaker. I put titles in English with some Spanish words... But like you said I'm not sure. Some agencies actually translate titles too.

As far as I saw most sites show different results according to the search language. Some, like Fotolia, because of their regional target, have many files with titles in another language ( in Fotolia most are in German ). Maybe if two or three words are translated into the headline in multiple languages, this will have an impact when someone searching in this languages.

But if you put love in three different languages when you actually search in a specific language (for example Spanish) you will find "Amor amor amor" (amor=love) like three times isn't it? I am. Not sure it that's a good idea
