    hi, I’m trying the free version before buying a paid plan.

    after few days, all translated pages are crawled by Google but not indexed due to “redirect problem”. I also tried to add most pages manually di sitemap but they are not translated anyway.

    I don’t think error is due to page title and seo attributes not translated (done by paid version), isn’t it?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    We’re clearly defining the language and offering the alternative languages in the HTML, so Google knows these are not duplicate content pages, but translated versions. Your translated pages will still be indexed, we have proper hreflang tags that signal the translated version, and the language switcher are proper links.
    The main problem here is probably the fact that you don’t have the SEO content translated, meaning the title tag and slug aren’t translated — we add support for this in our pro feature. Once those are translated they will start ranking a lot better. However, f you do not translate the SEO content, the only downside is that it will take a bit longer for Google to index the translated pages probably.
    Regarding sitemap, we add support for the main SEO plugins on the market, but only for pro version. However, having a non-translated sitemap will not have an impact on SEO as Google uses these sitemaps as a guideline, not a source of truth.

    I tested more.

    here you are an example: I asked to convalidate an indexing error due to “redirect error” in search console.

    Convalidation activity ended with the same error: crawled but not indexed due to redirection.

    page is: https://studiolegaleasmahi.it/en/servizi/ritardo-o-cancellazione-del-volo-scopri-i-tuoi-diritti

    isn’t it strange that error is about “redirection” ?

    thanks
