    I think about linking to some non-english websites. Will it benefit those websites in any way?

    I'd recommend you not do that.That will hurt the visitors' feelings IMO.
    Just link to the site with the same language of yours.Such as :If you have a german website,do link to german site but no english site.

    Richie's got a point there. But that link wouldn't hurt the other websites. It might even help them (gain PR, or similar stuff) if it's related to the website linking to it.

    Organize the links by language - that way you won't hurt your visitors and some will even be pleased. Other than that: it certainly won't hurt the websites you link to.

    It makes sense if the sites are related on topic.

    It won’t hurt and will probally bring some benefit to the other site if your sites are related... I however agree with the others that you should keep your users in mind and if it will not benefit them don’t link :D

    Hi,
    don't forget that some non-english websites have english pages :cool:
    More ! they are located (and registred) in countries like France, Italy, Spain, etc. Maybe, it's better to be referenced in those countries even in english for this local market...
