You are here:
Within HREFLang Builder our main project “view” screen and export will show you how many URL’s are included for each country as well as any errors. This is a great way to monitor consistency between counties.
In this example, nearly every country had a different number of URL’s. Many are due to errors which are represented in the red numbers.
Best Practice
- Review the counts of URL’s and understand why some markets have more than others. Check your source to make sure it captured all the URL’s.
- Review the error logs to see which of the pages have errors.
