hreflang

Hi everyone! Has anyone here ever tried something like this? We copied content from a few pages (3 pages) to a dropped domain and set canonicals + hreflang from the old site to the drop. Everything seemed fine at first, but later we decided to change the content on the dropped site. We rewrote...

Hello, guys! I ran into a situation and I’d like to get your thoughts on it: On my website, I have a canonical tag on the homepage pointing to a regional (local) page. For example: Homepage: site.com Regional page: site.com/it/ The content is identical on both pages. It's a kind of hacking...

I have two language versions on the same domain, site.pt (Portugal) & site.pt/br (Brazil) Goal: Specify https://site.pt/br/article/ to rank as canonical, serve duplicates https://site.pt/article/ for localised searches specified in hreflang. Current setup: Some articles are made to rank in...

Hello Guys, I have a question about Hreflang Tag. I have a website servicing in arabic and English. But some pages are common pages like contact page etc. Should I use hreflang tag on those pages as well as "en" only? What do you think??

Cant seem to find any information on this, so its probably not possible. Figured I should ask anyway, if someone is wondering on the same thing. But could I say, target Germany (Google) with english content, by using de-en or de-US on my hreflang? (Im using a subdomain "en".) If not, how would...

Hi guys, hreflangs are an oldie but I'm struggling to find my answers since most info/advice assumes that sites have alternate content/URLs available on a different country/language to map. I have a site that serves the UK and other EU countries/languages using subfolders: domain/XX/YY/ and...

I just found this article on searchenginejournal.com about a reply from Google’s John Mueller in response to a Redditor asking about whether hreflang attributes can be used in anchor tags. Personally, I found the article to be valuable and hope it would be too for someone else here. Cheers!

Hi, Here I found duplicate content on a famous domain techradar.com I want to ask why google is not taking actions against all his 6 duplicate languages, these duplicate content are up since July 2019. Published approx 50K duplicate pages on each country, details are below <link...

Hi there, I'm trying to figure out how to use canonical & hreflang at the same time for a multilingual website. I'm currently facing the following issue: "you should make sure to specify a self-referential canonical tag" Let's suppose I have a blog post in English, and a URL for a french...

I would appreciate any insights on this dilema when a brand has decided to global. -Having 10 different domains, different domain name, adapted to 10 countries. -All websites are on the same topic and similar target audience. -All content is adapted to local interpretation not literal...

Hi all, having a multi language website (URLs are like www.mydomain.com/language/) I am wondering if there is any configuration for the HTTP header which is better than others. So far I'm using 302 redirects based on language detection and hreflang tags on each page. Is there something very...

Hi Guys, I'm unsure how href lang should be defined when you have a .com domain, that is trying to target the UAE/Dubai? en-ae or does it not matter if it is just en or en-us, but in Google Search Console you have set targeting to UAE? Thanks!

Hi, I'm doing a study on hreflang and sites that use it for ccTLD's compared to sub-domains. The objective is to determine what is the optimal strategy for i18n for more traffic: 1: One domain for all languages 2: Subdomains for languages 3: Subdomains for languages and locations 4...
