Traffic collapsing months after migration

Need some opinions from people experienced with SEO migrations because we’re honestly confused at this point.

We migrated from Wix to WordPress on February 18 and basically rebuilt the entire site from scratch while keeping the same domain. New structure, new multilingual setup, new internal linking, new pages, everything.

Before the migration we had around 120-150 daily organic visits and several important city pages ranking very well for competitive keywords. Now some days we barely get 20-30 visits and the decline keeps getting worse week after week instead of stabilizing.

The strange part is that technically everything seems mostly correct. Pages are indexed, no manual actions, canonicals and hreflang look fine, redirects work, sitemap is correct, pages return 200, etc. We also fixed redirect chains, old www/non-www inconsistencies and updated historical backlinks pointing to redirected URLs.

What confuses us is that the drop is progressive, not sudden. Rankings and impressions keep decreasing little by little across many important pages at the same time.

At the same time, new pages still get indexed fast and sometimes even rank surprisingly quickly, which makes the situation even more confusing.

Has anyone experienced something similar after a major Wix → WordPress migration where Google seems unable to properly reconsolidate the historical authority/signals of the old site?

Would really appreciate honest opinions because we’ve been trying to figure this out for weeks now

How do you scale local SEO pages with AI without creating repetitive semantic patterns?

We’re running into a weird problem while scaling a location-based content site with hundreds of profile pages across different cities.

The issue isn’t keyword stuffing anymore — it’s semantic repetition.

Most AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc.) keep generating the same narrative structure over and over:

- “she spends time between…”
- “her style is connected to…”
- “luxury lifestyle”
- “discreet settings”
- “private dinners”
- etc.

Even when the cities and places change, the semantic DNA still feels identical.

We need pages that:
- rank locally for different cities,
- still include local entities and commercial intent,
- but DON’T feel programmatic or AI-generated.

The hardest part is balancing:
- local SEO relevance,
- editorial/brand tone,
- semantic uniqueness,
- and scalable production.

Has anyone found:
- a better AI workflow,
- prompting method,
- model combination,
- or content structure
for this kind of SEO?

Right now every model eventually falls into the same repetitive “AI luxury voice” after enough pages.

Hey everyone,

What’s currently the best marketplace to find real backlinks from USA-based websites?

Looking for actual sites with real traffic and indexed pages, not spammy PBNs. Any recommendations based on recent experience?

Not looking for direct outreach offers or reseller DMs, just genuine platform recommendations from people who’ve actually used them.

Hi everyone,

I currently live in a rented room in Madrid, and I’ve been thinking about renting a 2-bedroom apartment and using one of the rooms for Airbnb.

From what I’ve seen, apartments are usually around €1,300–1,400 per month, so I’m wondering if it’s realistically possible to cover most or all of the rent by renting one room short-term on Airbnb while living in the other room myself.

Does anyone here have experience doing this in Madrid or Spain in general?

Also, how do people usually convince landlords to allow Airbnb/subletting legally? Do you offer a higher deposit, a percentage of the income, or sign a special agreement?

I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences. Thanks!

Does anyone here have experience doing this in Madrid or Spain in general? Is it financially viable after expenses, occupancy rates, taxes, etc.?

Also, how do people usually convince landlords to allow Airbnb/subletting legally?
