The frame below runs the same code as this page, in the reader's own browser. Nothing is sent to us, and nothing is sent to you.

Pick a dark background and the text and panels follow it, so the frame stays readable on a dark page.

How it works

Language and region codes become hreflang link elements or headers, with absolute alternate URLs and optional x-default. Each locale points to the complete alternate set, including itself.

  • BCP 47-style tags separate language and region.
  • x-default identifies a fallback page.

Worked example

English and Spanish alternate page tags
Generate hreflang tags linking English and Spanish versions of a page with x-default
Input
											URLs: en:https://example.com/
es:https://example.com/es/
Default lang: en
Output
												<!-- Hreflang tags -->
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="https://example.com/">
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="es" href="https://example.com/es/">
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="x-default" href="https://example.com/">

When to use this

Multilingual stores, translated docs, and international SEO audits generate hreflang.

Edge cases

  • en_UK is invalid; use hyphenated language-region syntax.
  • Missing reciprocal links weaken annotations.
  • A conflicting canonical can override localization signals.
