What is Indexing?

Search engines storing your pages for retrieval. Translated pages must be indexable — visible in HTML, not behind JavaScript widgets.

In more depth

JS-overlay translators produce zero indexable content. Server-rendered language pages are what rank.

Why it matters for your website

Understanding Indexing helps you make better decisions when taking a WordPress site multilingual — from choosing URL structures and engines to controlling costs. Transxlate handles the mechanics (language URLs, lang attributes, caching, hreflang on Pro) so terms like this become settings, not engineering projects.
