Translation, well itīs like god. You have to believe in it. For SM niche sites, German customers using them are mostly well educated and speak English anyway. So translation is not required. And a bad translation is more or less funny and doesnīt really help to convince a customer to sign up.

The average wanker doesnīt speak English but is not as interested in text as the niche site visitor is. He wants to jerk off immediately and doesnīt care about text. So a translation of your advertising text isnīt as important as a translation of the join form. The average joe needs to get to know what to type in to the join form, or he wonīt be able to sign up.

So if you feel the need to translate, start with the join forms.
