The correct hreflang for the GB
-
Hi does anyone know the correct hreflang for the UK
Google webmaster error:
International Targeting | Language > 'en-GB' - no return tags (sitemaps)Sitemap provided URLs and alternate URLs in 'en-GB' that do not have return tags.Thanks you all
-
Great, thanks for clearing this up.
Have a great day..

If your site is only in English you don't need to use hreflang tags at all.
-
-
Well, you have two .com.com in there ... so that's in general wrong.
But yes, it's en-gb, not en-UK.
You just have to have all the tags on all the pages. You can use Flang to see what's wrong as well.

Hi MattAntonio,
Thanks for your reply, so are you saying that this code is correct?

Generally when you get the no return tags error it means that you put a hreflang for one page but not the referring page.
Let's say your pages are:
If you put hreflang tags on /en but not the rest, you'll get the no return tags error.
So just put the full hreflang tag set on every page that uses any one of the languages and you'll solve this error. Also see Webmasters Support for more info.

Is this a Correct Time to Use 302 Redirects?
Hi Mozzers! We are going through a rebranding process, and as of this morning we have 3 domains, all with identical content. For example (not real domain names): www.fantastic.com
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | Travis-W
www.fantasticfireworks.com
www.fireworks.com We are using 3 domains to ease the rebranding transition. We currently only want people to visit 'www.fantastic.com,' and if they visit the other 2 domains we want them redirected. Since we will be using these other domains eventually, should we use 302 redirects instead of 301s? The other domains are new and do not have any domain authority or sites linking in, so we do not need to worry about link juice. Does it really matter what type of redirect we use? Thanks!0 -
.gb.net domains good for SEO?
I've found a .gb.net domain with a highly competitive exact match term for sale. Do .gb.net domains rank well within google? Or are they considered not as authorative? Is it worth purchasing one?
