  • I have a page on my site in a foreign language. Will google automatically figure that out?

    Posted by seohelper on July 27, 2021 at 4:03 am

    There’s one page on my website, which is otherwise in English, that is in a foreign language. It is not duplicative text. Do I need to add something to it like a metag or submit it to google somehow so that if someone is doing a search in that language they will find it? I’m using wix and this is in addition to wix having automatic translations of the entire site into multiple languages. My goal is to improve my seo in this particular language.

    Quest me if I’m wrong on this one folks but I would Put the hreflang for that page for the language that it’s in. Then on the other pages put that language as an alternative.

    Please correct me if I’m wrong

    You can use Hreflang tag.

    Hreflang is an HTML <link> or <link> tag attribute that tells search engines the relationship between pages in different languages on your website.

    Google uses the attribute to serve the correct regional or language URLs in its search results based on the searcher’s country and language preferences.

    Yes they can figure out. I have a website that is approved Google news and non English articles don’t appear on Google news.
