Ask HN: Traffic drooped to 1/3rd after adding translation in 14 days

1 pointsby souvic10 months ago
My site videodubber.ai had a healthy share of traffic with ranking of most pages between 10-20. I added spanish translations to the 33000 pages (mostly &#x27;translate x_language video to y_language&#x27; landing pages) that we had and removed some textual content on July 7th.<p>Traffic dropped from 900 to 650 per day.<p>Then, I added some helpful content adding how my product can help translate one language to another on July 19th.<p>Traffic dropped to 350 from 600.<p>Now, I got the previous slim content back thinking that probably user intent was hit. Google crawled my pages on July 23rd.<p>I see further drops in traffic to 300.<p>What is happening seriously?<p>2-3 backlinks also got added in between.<p>Traffic continues to decline.<p>Ask me any additional details. I will provide.

My guess is that Google is trying to reduce AI spam and that your translation triggered something there.
