What Are Hreflang Tags?
Hreflang tags are HTML attributes that tell search engines what language a page is in and which region it targets.
Why They’re Important
Without them, visitors might see the wrong language version of your site, leading to a poor user experience.
Best Practices
-
Use ISO language & region codes (e.g.,
en-us
,fr-ca
). -
Implement hreflang in HTML head, HTTP headers, or sitemap.
-
Make sure all versions link to each other reciprocally.
Final Thoughts
Correct hreflang implementation ensures your audience sees the right version of your site, boosting engagement and conversions.
