    Yesterday I changed my SEO plugin from Greg’s High Performance to Rank Math. I did try to export the existing SEO data with a plugin but it didn’t work. I then installed Rank Math but now see in Google Analytics that my traffic has completely tanked to almost zero. Is this just a question of adding SEO data / info to all the existing posts – or am I missing something in the Rank Math settings that has caused this?

    Hi Ashley,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us.

    Rank Math doesn’t add your analytics code to your website. We do not have that option, not yet anyway.

    Please add the Analytics code to your website manually or use any other Google Analytics integration plugin so your pageviews get recorded properly.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Hi,

    I think you misunderstood.
    I have an Analytics plugin on this site for 7 years. Up until yesterday, I was getting 2500-3000 page views a day, yesterday I was down to 20-30. The only thing I did yesterday was remove Greg’s High Performance plugin and install Rank Math. I rely on this website for income, so if these traffic figures are real, I have a problem. My question was, is this just a question of adding SEO data / info to all the existing posts – or am I missing something in the Rank Math settings that has caused this?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    This kind of traffic loss would not happen in a single day since all your indexed data is still available on search engines. Could you please check if there are any errors reported on your search console dashboard?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
