2. What’s the difference between translation and copywriting translation?
Normal
translation techniques are too literal, which
results in the translated document being unnatural to its readers. Minor translation mistakes in such documents
affects the readability quite dramatically. Copywriting translation is a technique of using the vocabulary of the translated language to communicate the actual meaning that is written in the original document. It is not influenced by the original document sentence structure or phrases employed. Care is taken to build terminologies with the right fluency In conveying the message and style of the original author. On some occasions, we are able to spot and correct minor mistakes in the original document. Such instances are usually what set us apart from other translation companies whom might not be observant enough to spot and rectify the fluency.
Copywriting translation is especially useful in translating advertising and marketing collaterals. The objective of a marketing message is to be powerful enough to move emotion. Thus, to translate a marketing message, the translator is required to have a language flair that would easily attract readers and motivate them to respond to the call-to-actions with minimal effort.

3. What is SEO Copywriting?
SEO Copywriting, or to give it its full name,
Search Engine Optimization copywriting or search engine copywriting, is the technique of writing the viewable text on a web page in such a way that it reads well for the surfer, and also targets specific search terms. Its purpose is to rank highly in the search engines for the targeted search terms.
As well as the viewable text, SEO Copywriting usually optimizes other on-page elements for the targeted search terms. These include the Title, Description and Keywords tags, headings and alt text.
Through employing up-to-date techniques, SEO copywriting could help your website's ranking in search engines and increase your exposure to your target audience.
