Domain Masking Reference

When your users translate your webpages they will be served through our translation servers. This results in the URL of the browser being changed from your URL to a WorldLingo URL. If you want to hide this from your users you will have to use the "Domain Masking" feature we provide.

For example you may have switched off all branding options for your IWT so that no WorldLingo logo or name is appearing anywhere in the result content and IWT itself. The only place left to identify that WorldLingo is providing the service is then the URL. If you are not concerned about that then you may not need the Domain Masking feature. But if you want to hide WorldLingo completely from your users then you may want to consider this feature.

You have to be aware that this requires some work on your end as well. After you have activated the Domain Masking feature and entered a domain name you have to set up that domain name on your domain name servers (DNS) to point to "www.worldlingo.com". Please contact the administrator of your website to learn if you have this functionality available to you. For example, let us assume you own the domain name "mywebsite.com" and your webpages are available under "www.mywebsite.com". You can then set up a sub-domain name such as "translate.mywebsite.com" and point it to "www.worldlingo.com" - again your administrator will know how to do that. You would then enter this sub-domain name into our configuration page. What this does is that we configure your IWT to use this sub-domain name instead of ours during the translation process.
