The hreflang HTML attribute, placed within the link elements of a page’s HEAD section, serves the purpose of aiding search engines in recognizing that specific pages are intended for a designated language or country audience. By incorporating this attribute, you can seamlessly direct users to the targeted pages, significantly enhancing the SEO performance of your website.
Why a plugin? Integrating the hreflang attribute into a WordPress-powered website can be a complex task without a dedicated plugin. Hence, we present Hreflang Manager.
How does it work? Utilizing the “Connections” menu or the “Hreflang Manager” sidebar, you can establish connections between the pages of your website and their respective versions tailored for diverse languages or countries. The plugin simplifies this process by automatically adding the necessary HTML markup to the HEAD section of the selected pages, ensuring effective management of your hreflang connections.
