Hungarian Translator and Interpreter Directory

Hungarian-Translator.eu is a Budapest based directory of translators and interpreters where you can post jobs and it seems like a good option for translators in Hungary.

The community website has been designed to help clients find the ideal translator or interpreter in an effective way that saves them time and money. The site helps those offering translation and interpreting services to be available on the Internet in a clear and well-organized manner.

Thanks to Hajnalka Horváth for suggesting this site Happy

Translia

Translia is an innovative online translation service that brings more jobs to translators and helps them do better and quicker translation with Internet technology. It secures payment to translators by requesting clients to deposit escrow. The best is the clients pay Translia for the service so translators don't have to.

I noticed one interesting paradox on the first page of this site. It claims that customers might get free translations and that same time it states that being a member of this site earns you good money. Well well well...

Translators Town

Johan Ericsson reports: I have just found a new website on Google and got a job very quickly, have a look at their website (www.translatorstown.com), it is free to register and bid, they are new though but I never got a job from the older ones like translatorsbase or aquarius.net.
Thanks for the tip Johan! Happy

Translationbank

Translationbank is yet another free jobsite for language professionals Happy

Trally.com

Some people find trally.com great. I have never got any job from this site though. It operates with 3 membership levels, which are priced at the same level as other sites. The first level is free so why not give it a try?

TranslationDirectory

The Translation Directory has yet another business model, you only pay once to buy a database of translation agencies. However, you pay a lot more and then you will have the added cost to buying updates. The site has other good tools you can use such as black lists etc. Nevertheless, you can buy agency addresses and get a years membership at other job sites much cheaper.

Translator's Corner

At Translator's Corner they've developed new technology and a new system to help you conduct business safely and quickly. Their claim is "When working with us, you will never have to worry about getting paid again". Check them out at www.translatorscorner.com. Membership is absolutely free.

Their creed: "Freelance translation the way it should be: If you don't get paid, we don't get paid."

Usenet Newsgroup

Ideally you need access to a news server, but if you don't have that you can subscribe thru Google Groups. In the newsgroups sci.lang.translation and sci.lang.translation.markedplace you can promote yourself and your services as well as finding contracts. Usenet newsgroups are free for everyone and has a lot of traffic, they provide an excellent alternative to the subscriptionbased jobsites Happy

Aquarius

Aquarius, strive to be the market leader in online translation outsourcing for translators, translation agencies and industry clients. However, I have never got one job thru them... Sad
