What Clients Say About Our International SEO
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hreflang, and why does it matter?
Hreflang is an HTML attribute that tells Google which language and country version of a page to show a given searcher. Without it, Google may show the wrong version, or treat similar pages as duplicate content.
Should we use ccTLDs, subdirectories, or subdomains?
It depends on your budget, team resources, and how many markets you plan to support. Subdirectories are usually the most resource-efficient for most businesses, while ccTLDs offer the strongest local signal at a higher operational cost.
Do you handle content translation too?
We manage the SEO strategy, localization QA, and keyword research per market. For content translation itself, we can coordinate with your existing translators or recommend partners, depending on your setup.
How do you prevent duplicate content across country versions?
Through correct hreflang implementation combined with genuinely differentiated content per market, rather than relying on hreflang alone to solve what's really a content problem.
Can you fix existing hreflang errors on our site?
Yes. Auditing and correcting existing hreflang implementation is one of the most common starting points for this service.
How long does international SEO take to show results?
Technical fixes like hreflang corrections can show impact within weeks. Building out full localized content and rankings in new markets typically takes 3–6 months per market.
Do you support right-to-left languages and non-Latin scripts?
Yes. Technical and strategic support extends to right-to-left languages like Arabic and Hebrew, as well as non-Latin scripts, with the appropriate technical considerations for each.
