Hello,

I was wondering if there would be a an answer to the above question? 
I'm going to make a wild guess and assume there's a lot of demand as
well as equivilant or even over saturated supply in the English
language sector.

How about the other languages?

Looking for an educated guess with an argument explained as to why. 
Might even reference search results that show there's an expressed
need and difficulty in locating suppliers and maybe search engine
ranks.. I wouldn't know where to beging and I'm going to quit before I
sound too stupid.

Please don't assume I'd appreciate an approach if it's similar to
mine, I will appreciate your opinion through your defence for it.

Thank you.

Hello Lizardnation
when you say 'Supply vs Demand' do you really mean 'Supply and Demand'
and level of, for each (Western?) language. Or are you trying to
establish if opt in email is driven by 'push or pull' (Supply Vs
Demand) for each language.
kind regards

Hello Lot,

My mistake.  I meant Supply and Demand.

The languages I would need covered should not be intentionally
focusing on Western languages.  This is a global issue I believe and
would like it to be given that opportunity. :-)

Thank you.

Hello Lot,

I used to get prompt responses almost on all my questions, Lately I've
noticed that I've either not been posting clear questions or it's a
low season? ;-)

Hello Lizardnation
Just haven't managed to dig up a satisfactory answer...
I'd post an answer if I had one :-)
probably in this instance another researcher will have better success.
Kind regards

Hi, 

At the risk of sounding rather ignorant myself, I need to ask a few
rather obvious questions. Are you asking whether there is a
Supply/Demand issue for wanting opt-in email from the user's
standpoint or from the software makers stand point?

For instance. I want to find opt-in email to get cupons or information
from a service

or

I have software that supplies opt-in mail-list handling functions and
I need clients to purchase it..

Which of these two are you looking at? 

Sorry if this is painfully obvious stuff, but I can't figure it out
from the question. Might have turkey dinner on the brain, and just not
reading clearly.

Hello Webadept,

The question would serve in allows an Opt-In e-mail marketing company
to know what more languages to support in order to pull in more
advertisers.  They want to attract advertisers in under served
languages after having their web site done in English.

Wanting to globalize the site, it would need to be translated well and
that comes at a substantial cost in terms of translation and
copywriting the content for each language.  To be efficient, it would
be a good idea to plan it appropriately and translate where there
logically more demand and less supply for a particular language.

Your request for clarification was appropriate as my question wasn't
clear enough. :-)

Thank you.
