    After migrating from Yoast to Rank Math, Sitelinks searchbox count is reducing drastically in GSC. http://screenshot.how/BF5ufA
    How can I resolve this.

    2nd Issue: My site is 3 yrs old. Recently, after migrating from Yoast to Rank Math, My Google page view decreased by my Bing page view count increased heavily. Is there any connection with Rank Math? Have you heard of such an issue previously?

    Thanks, Team.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Rank Math adds the Sitelinks search box only to the homepage as it only needs to be present on the homepage as per Google’s guidelines which is why you are seeing a drop in sitelinks in GSC:
    https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/sitelinks-searchbox#guidelines

    The Sitelinks SearchBox Schema will drop further until you see just one valid page.

    If for some reason you want that on all your pages, please follow this tutorial:

    Switching SEO plugins should not cause a drop in rankings and traffic, can you please check if there are any Coverage issues in the Search Console?

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thanks. It helped.
