What is the Localization?
Localization process is much more than translating the text of a game, application and website. It also includes quality assurance, integration of the translated text into the game, application and website, testing, reflecting the culture of the translated language, and preserving the section reserved for the text.
Localization is an increasingly important consideration for game, application and website developers. Localization is the process of making your project more attractive to a wider range of countries or locales and leads to more sales.
