WPML kääntää WordPress-sivustot monikielisiksi. Se käyttää välimuisti-, hakukoneoptimointi- ja sähköisen-kaupankäynnin laajennuksia ja sen avulla voidaan rakentaa täydellisiä monikielisiä sivustoja. WPML pyörittää yhtä hyvin yksinkertaisia blogeja kuin yhtiöiden ja yritysten sivustojakin.

WPML-laajennuksen avulla käyttäjät voivat kääntää sivustolla kaiken, mukaan lukien sisällön, valikot, vimpaimet ja jopa teemat ja laajennustekstit. WPML toimii 500 000 kaupallisen sivuston moottorina ympäri maailmaa.
