About Hreflang Tags

Hreflang tags are HTML link elements that tell search engines about the language and geographic targeting of a webpage. They help Google serve the correct language or regional URL to users in different locations.

Hreflang tags use the format:

<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-US" href="https://example.com/en-us/page" />

Key points:

Language codes: Use ISO 639-1 language codes (e.g., en, fr, de)
Regional variants: Add country codes for regional targeting (e.g., en-US, en-GB)
x-default: Use for the default/fallback version when no language matches
Bidirectional: If page A links to page B, page B should link back to page A
Self-referencing: Each page should include a hreflang tag pointing to itself

Proper hreflang implementation prevents duplicate content issues and improves international SEO performance. Use this tool to audit your hreflang setup and identify any configuration errors.
