Q: Rank for Multiple Language

Let say my main content is in English, but I also cater to Portuguese and Spanish customer, instead of using a dynamic translator or web browser translator, can we have the same page with 3 language because I wan to rank for all three languages:
Example
sample.com/business/en/abc-company (for english)
sample.com/business/pt/abc-company (for portuguese)
sample.com/business/es/abc-company (for spanish)

Q: job board

Hi Team,

I would like to use your service to create a job board listing, and I'm wondering if there is a dashboard statistics feature available that will show how many people applied, viewed the listing, and how long the listing was live.

Thank you

A: Thanks for your question and for taking the time to check us out! 😊

Yes, Brilliant Directories can be used to create a job board, and there are built-in tools to help track engagement on job listings:

🔹 Profile Analytics – Employers who post jobs can see how many views their job listing received.
🔹 Lead Tracking – Employers can track where inquiries came from (e.g., specific job listing page, category page, etc.).
🔹 Job Management – Employers can see their publish date and have full control to remove or unpublish listings that are no longer active.

Check out live job board examples built with BD here:

Q: Can 75% code be used to purchase 1 website or must purchase the 3 pack?

1. If I purchase tier 3 on appsumo and later want to purchase 1 additional site, how much would one site cost with the 75% included? Or, would I have to buy the 3 site lifetime bundle?

2. And, will my additional site have the same features included as my tier 3, or would the additional site only include the features listed on your website?

A: Thanks for your question and for taking the time to check us out! 😊

The 75% off promo code works when making additional purchases through the Brilliant Directories website—it does not apply to AppSumo tiers, as those are special lifetime deals that already include bundled add-ons.

If you purchase the 3-pack of lifetime sites directly from the BD website, you can use the 75% off promo code for that. However, those sites will not include the add-ons that come bundled with the AppSumo tiers.

👉 If you need add-ons for additional sites, you can use the 75% promo code to purchase them individually or unlock all add-ons with the VIP Add-Ons Club for each site.

Hope that helps! Let us know if you have any other questions—we’re happy to assist! 🚀
