Imagine a pure/static html website. I mean no server side logic, just some html/css/js.

How would I provide such a website in multiple languages? Would it be satisfying to have have a directory for every language on the server? Like

website root 
    - en
       -index.htm
    - de
       -index.htm
    ...

Actually I do not see any problems using this approach. What do you think? May there be issues regarding SEO and google indexing this sites?

    regarding SEO there wont be any issues if you intend to use the directory structure. 1 big disadvantage of doing it this way: maintaining and upkeep is going to be a lot of work. – Matthias Wegtun Apr 02 '13 at 14:41

    It is a good idea to use templating engine, even for static web. You can keep code small and maintainable that way and retain most benefits of static website. – Richard Apr 02 '13 at 14:44
