Problem: The client has a travel agency with three separate WordPress sites for different languages, each with unique content tailored to each language audience. They are inquiring whether installing WPML to set up links between similar content across these domains would be beneficial for SEO, despite the content not being translations but unique for each language. Solution: We recommend not installing WPML on each site since the content is not translated but uniquely created for each language. WPML is typically used for linking translated content across multilingual sites. Instead, optimize each site as separate regular websites. For linking similar content across different languages and improving SEO, consulting an SEO expert would be the best approach.

Scroll down and click on the "Translate texts in admin screens »" link. 4. Search for the needed strings. 5. Select the strings. 6. Click on the "Add to String Translation" button. 7.
