Digital products are amazing: Unlike physical products, they can be exported into different markets with just a few clicks – well, technically. Practically, launching your website or app in a foreign market means way more than just auto-translating your copy and adapting your Terms of Services. It mean, re-creating your product in a way that meets the needs, values, and preferences of your target audience. This process is called Localization.

But what exactly is Localization? How does it work? And as UX Writers, what is our job in the Localization process?

For UX Writers, being part of the Localization process is crucial: As experts in content design, communication, and copy, UX Writers accompany all steps of the Localization process and jump in whenever their knowledge and skills are needed. Sometimes, they are even asked to manage the Localization process. Therefore, it is crucial for UX Writers to understand how Localization works, who is involved, and what needs to be done at which point in time.
