Why Has My Website Disappeared From Google

It's very useful to know how to Google translate a website. The internet is a big place and you may on occasion stumble upon a website that isn't in your native language. In these situations, it makes sense to translate a website with Google so you can still gain the information you need.

It's possible to translate a website through the Google Translate web app. This is done by copy and pasting the URL of a web page into the Translate text box and choosing the language you want to translate to from the drop-down menu. The page will open automatically in a new tab and be fully translated.

While the above method works well, there is actually a much more convenient way to convert a website into your native tongue, which is to Google translate a website directly in your browser.

Below is our walkthrough on how to Google translate a website in the Chrome browser. Just follow the instructions and you'll be able to browse the entire web regardless of what languages you come across.
