A friend of mine wants to put german language content on the blog, so I checked out the multilingual plugin for wordpress, but I cannot tell which one works best, does anyone have an idea which one is the easiest ? xLanguage, Gengo, qTranslate ? Or is it smarter to setup a few different domain blogs ?
Well, there are a few plug ins, but the translation is rough to say the least. I think I am using this one on a site N2H. It gives you the option of Google, Babel Fish, and one other translation service , and I believe it does 40 languages including German. If you can do your own translations, it would probably be a better move to make sure that your blog is translated well, but this will get you in the ball park and index your posts in non-English search results.
