About hreflang tags

hreflang tags tell search engines which language and region each page version targets, so users get the right one. A valid setup is self-referencing (each page lists itself and all alternates) and bidirectional (if A points to B, B must point back to A), ideally with an x-default.

This generator builds the correct <link rel="alternate" hreflang="…"> tags from your language/URL pairs and validates the codes. Add the same full set to the <head> of every listed page — a common mistake is including only the alternates and forgetting the page's own self-reference.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got Questions? We Have Answers.

How do I use the hreflang generator?

Enter one "language, URL" pair per line and it builds the correct <link rel="alternate" hreflang="…"> tags, validating each language and region code.

Where do the tags go?

In the <head> of every listed page. The same full set must appear on each URL, including a self-reference to the page itself.

Do I need x-default?

It is recommended — it is the fallback for users whose language or region matches none of your versions. Add an x-default row and the tool includes it.

Does it run in my browser?

Yes. The tags are generated entirely client-side.
