It’s not often (if ever, actually) that I would just glom something onto this site after reading a blog post elsewhere, but this just seems like a no-brainer (and I love the look of the flags). Amit Agarwal says:
Since more than 65% of web users speak a language other than English, it is essential that you provide language translation features in your blog so that you don’t miss the non-English speaking traffic.
So when an Arabic visitor passes your English blog, he or she can just click the Arab flag to translate the website into his native language - That way you don’t loose a visitor plus he could even subscribe if the content is good even if written in another language.
