FAQ
Common questions
Do both pages need each other's hreflang?+
Yes — hreflang must be reciprocal. The Arabic page links to the English and vice versa, or Google ignores them.
Where do these tags go?+
In the <head> of each page (or in your XML sitemap / HTTP headers). Putting them in <head> is the simplest for most sites.
What if I only have Arabic and English?+
Add two rows (ar and en) and set x-default to the version most visitors should land on. That is a complete, valid setup.
