Web design in Llanelli

Half-done is the wrong end of the effort

A Welsh home page leading to English everywhere else tells the reader the language was considered and then abandoned. That is a clearer message than the business intended.

The same applies to a language switch that appears on some pages, forms that revert to English, or a translation that is visibly machine-produced.

Either commit to the pages you can genuinely maintain in both languages, or be straightforward about what you offer instead.

There is an honest middle option

Saying that your staff speak Welsh and that you are happy to deal with customers in it, on an otherwise English site, is completely respectable and costs nothing to maintain.

It answers the question the customer has without making a promise the site cannot keep.

Manufacturing and a coastal town

Llanelli's light industry serves customers well beyond the area, while its retail and coastal trade serve the town itself.

Questions people here ask

Is a partial Welsh site a problem?

Frequently. A Welsh home page leading to English everywhere else reads as an abandoned effort rather than a considered one.

What is the honest alternative?

Say that your staff speak Welsh and you are happy to be contacted in it. That is respected and costs nothing to maintain.

How much should we translate?

Only what you can keep current in both languages. A smaller genuinely bilingual site beats a large half-translated one.
