Site visitors will see a Change Site Language drop-down list when they visit the page.

Set properties for the language selector:
Property Description Do Not Translate Select this checkbox if you want the text in the Label field to remain the same for all languages. Label The label that appears beside the Language Selector page element when it's added to a page. “Change Site Language” is the default text.
The text is translatable, so you can either choose a language in the Site.com Studio language selector and update the text for each language, or export all site content for translation.
