I used a translator, but thought I would ask someone who speaks the language just to be on the safe side.
 
Alternatively you could post the phrases from the translator and ask if they are right ;)

I can offer $20 to any native German speaker willing to help me out with these, and some other translations.

PM me.

let me start...

Full Name Vor- und Nachname

I used a translator

Automatic translators are as useful as automatic appraisals. Automatic translators won't understand the context (this is for a web page, right?), and will most likely translate Home into the German equivalent of a place where one lives, and will probably translate Full Name literally, which imho would seem awkward.

It really depends in which context you are using those words, there are many different translations for each one.

Home =, zu Hause, Heimat, zuhause, (and if being used in a website context people use Home as well)
Contact us = kontaktier uns, Kontaktieren Sie uns,(if being used for a website most often just: Kontakt.
Links: Verbindungen, (if being used for a website: Links)
Site Map: I would say that in 70% of the cases the word Site Map is being used as well, but 30% of the time people use the German word Überblick, which means something like overview
Lease this ad space: Dieser Werbeplatz ist zu vermieten
Submit: Übermitteln, but in some cases submit is used as well
Inquiry: Anfrage, Nachfrage, Frage
Full Name: Name, Vor- und Nachname. Even if you say just Name people will assume its first and last name.
 
As Domainah already pointed out, on german websites often english terms are used, e.g. Home, Links, Sitemap ....
If you have anything more to translate, please feel free to pm me.

Greetings, Chris
 
Translation emailed --- don't rely on the automated translation programs because you can end up with a stew of sentences that are out of context.
