Dear Lucy, All the requests for translated versions are being passed through our proxy IP address which you see on your side. We also send the real visitor IP address. You can use X-Real-IP header to see visitor's/bots IP address. Please contact via our live chat for more info.

I have banned GTranslate's IP, and the website is functioning much better (but without translation) :( This proves that it is GTransalte that is causing the issue. Please can you help us fix it.

Hi, GTranslate IPs should be white-listed always, so we can access your original content and provide translations. We always send the real visitor IP address in X-Real-IP request header, so you can identify the real visitor and decide to ban or to allow access. GTranslate acts as a proxy. If your server is having trouble serving high volume traffic, you can change your hosting or use cloudflare with your hosting. I want to note that when there are no requests for translated pages, GTranslate is passive and doesn't access your website. Thanks!
