Hi there. I have this .no site in norwegian (my language). Now I want to make a english version of it. Whats the best method for this? Create a domain number two .com? Ps. And it is important that the sites are google friendly ;)

I understand there is 2 ways doing this. Using this Multi-lingual or separate website for each language. Whats the optimal one? Google search optimization is important...

I've just completed a very simple site using 2 languages.

I can't comment on the Google issue but I'd strongly recommend using the Multi-language feature as

(a) site maintenance would be far easier
(b) users could easily switch language, if need be, without changing sites.
