How to make a webstore in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and other Indian languages

By Storzu·

India isn't a single-language market. A Bangalore-based seller might have customers who read Kannada, English, Tamil, and Hindi — sometimes in the same week. Building a webstore in only English leaves money on the table. Building one in 8 Indian languages used to require a translator and weeks of work. Storzu does it automatically with one click.

Languages supported

Storzu storefronts support 8 Indian languages out of the box:

How auto-translation works

When you add a product to your Storzu store in any one language, AI generates translations for all 8 languages in the background within seconds. You don't need to be multilingual yourself — write in the language you're most comfortable with, and every customer sees the store in theirs.

The translations cover product names, descriptions, category names, your shop name and location, banner labels, and the Order on WhatsApp message — every customer-facing piece of text.

Why a multi-language webstore matters

  • Trust: A Telugu customer is far more likely to buy from a Telugu storefront than an English one — even if they read English fine.
  • Conversion: Native-language stores convert ~30-40% better in non-metro India based on internal Storzu data.
  • Reach: Indian-language Google search has been growing 4x faster than English search since 2020. Indian customers searching in their language find language-localised stores first.
  • Word of mouth:Customers share stores that "just work" in their language. A Tamil saree shop gets shared in Tamil community groups; an English- only one usually doesn't.

Real examples of multi-language Indian stores

  • Pickle and ghee makers from Andhra/Telangana selling to NRI customers in the US/Canada — store available in Telugu, English, and Hindi.
  • Saree weavers from Tamil Nadu — store in Tamil for state customers, English for diaspora and other states.
  • Kerala spice sellers — Malayalam storefronts for local trust, English for north Indian and overseas customers.
  • Marathi tiffin services in Pune/Mumbai — Marathi for working professionals, Hindi as fallback.

Frequently asked questions

Does Storzu translate product names into Indian languages automatically?

Yes. When you add a product in any language (English, Hindi, etc.), Storzu uses AI to auto-translate the name and description into all 8 supported languages. You don't need to translate manually.

Which language do customers see by default?

Customers see your storefront in the language matching their device — a customer in Andhra Pradesh on a Telugu phone sees Telugu by default. They can switch with one tap on the language picker.

Can I write product descriptions in my native language and have them shown in English to other customers?

Yes. Write in whichever language is most comfortable — Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, etc. Storzu auto-translates to all 8 languages so every customer sees your store in their preferred language.

Is the customer-facing checkout (WhatsApp message) translated too?

Yes. The Order on WhatsApp pre-filled message uses the language the customer is browsing in, so the seller receives clean, properly-formatted orders regardless of which language the customer chose.

Will Google index my Hindi/Telugu/Tamil store?

Yes. Storzu generates language-tagged storefronts that Google indexes properly. Customers searching in Indian languages can find your store directly.
