Hello, I am extremely disappointed with the wix multilingual tool which is not at all successful for SEO
Why ?
-
Indeed I note that despite the fact that in the second language if you want to hide pages, it does not work. For this to work, the pages must necessarily be hidden in the mother language (first language). it’s very easy to check it just display the sitemap of the language and see that the page you tried to hide by checking the button, does not actually work
-
All current analytic SEO solutions do not see the difference between the primary language and the secondary language and only display the base language, which is therefore complicated to make optimizations behind. What I mean is that the tags of all languages are read in the main language (H1, title…)
-
It is also not possible to translate wix databases (wix content) and it is also not possible to hide its pages from search engines. If I decide to hide search engines with the button on the second language, well I see that this change has also been made to the main language!
-
Finally, between one language and another, the length of the words can vary, which graphically implies bands and that the latter cannot be modified because an alert tells us that this will modify the main version. We sometimes have huge climbs between one language and another ( example the English language is shorter by 25% compared to French, so there is a nice hole in the translated site)
-
I would also have liked that Wix answered me on my post … since November 6 …

So here it is, SEO is a priority for me and my clients, especially since the appearance of the Covid because companies realize that visibility on the web is one of the keys to generating turnover. Thank you for your feedback and your actions
Have a good holiday 2020
Thx
