Lionbridge is a company employing work at home staff to check and rate internet search results and translations. This is a part-time or full-time job. As you’re aware, around the world local people use different words, phrases and idioms – things that a non-resident can’t simply tap into. In the US if you’re wearing your pants in the street that’s perfectly OK, in the UK it’s likely to get you arrested – simply because the word pants means different things in each country.

Where a website is in more than one language, or even delivers different English pages based on the location of the person viewing it, the language needs to be checked by a local – and that’s what the Lionbridge work at home staff do.
