About Google's Page Ranking (PR) Index: Google ranks all web pages on a scale from 0 to 10 according to the number of links that lead to that page and the importance of the referring pages. A low PR number does not reflect the quality of the page, but may tell the owner that it needs more marketing effort to make the page more "popular." You can check the PR of your, or any other, web page at http://www.prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php, for example. For an explanation of Google's PageRank technology, see http://www.google.com/technology/.




Chiara Francese Marinolli's Site
http://web.ticino.com/Interlingua/index.htm
A simple site with an attractive design. It is supposed to be in four languages (Italian, French, English, German), but somehow the banners on the home page and the languages of the other pages don't always match. Brief description of Chiara's translation, interpretation, and proofreading services, rates, and reasons she should be chosen.

Rina Ne'eman's Site
http://www.hebrewtrans.com/
A fun site with lots of pictures which, however, don't always clearly indicate where they lead. Fortunately there are also text links for easy navigation. Description of services, (numerous) areas of expertise, references (only names of companies), and tools.

Mohammed Al-Obaidi's Site
http://www.arabictranslation.co.uk/profile.html
A very attractive-looking site, whose graphics imitate the Arabic script's flowing lines. The different pages describe Mohammed's profile, translation, Arabic cultural competency and cultural awareness training services, with a blurb on business in Iraq.
