    Rank Math free

    Hi, we use Rank MAth on two of our websites. We just added Romanian language as second language to our lovinbridal.com website. The URLs are in subdirectory like lovinbridal.com/ro
    We use tranlsatepress plugin for translation. We use paid version and have their SEO addon activated. The sitemap Rank Math generate do not include the links to the translated version of our products. Can we do anything to include the /ro links to the sitemap so google can index them ?

    Best regards
    Peter

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Please note that Rank Math usually only handles adding the default language to your sitemap. Other languages are handled automatically by the translation plugin you use by adding a hreflang into each page automatically so that Google knows that it is a translated version of some other page.

    This is one of the recommended methods to manage translated pages in sitemaps.

    It is not a must that you have the translated pages in your sitemap. This is perfectly fine and as per the guidelines set by Google: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/localized-versions

    However, if you still want, you can follow this guide to create a custom sitemap: https://rankmath.com/kb/custom-sitemaps/

    For more information, you can refer to the full guide on performing SEO for multiple languages using Rank Math and TranslatePress: https://rankmath.com/kb/multiple-languages-seo-rankmath-translatepress/#multilingual-xml-sitemap

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you.
