Thank you Cypra for your answer.

What is a rollback exactly?

I don't think the domain has been penalized because Google displays the sitelinks for if you search "Truxy lawyers" and I also looked at GA traffic and it's stable.

The site links have been there since Google introduced the new way of displaying the SERPs.

Hi everyone,

Something weird has happened to one of our client's site.

First of all I want to explain that the client's name is something like a Person Name plus another generic keyword, for example Truxy Lawyers.

Before when you searched for the brand keyword (in my example Truxy), Google would show in the SERPs the client's site as first result with six sitelinks below.

Now when searching for the same branded keyword (for example Truxy), Google doesn't show the sitelink anymore, but the first result is the home page and the second and third results are subdomain pages. Does anybody know why Google all of the sudden decided to stop showing the site link?

Things get more weird when you search the complete brand name "Truxy Lawers" for example, because in this case Google shows the site link.

Does anybody know what has caused this?

Thank you!

So, was your hierarchy like this?

GER = www.domain.de = German language and URLs version of www.domain.com

FRA = www.domain.fr = French language and URLs version of www.domain.com

...and so on  and so on?

So, this client has this current setup...

USA = www.domain.com in English

CAN = www.domain.ca in English

FR CAN = quebec.domain.ca = which based on this consideration, should be have URL's in French.

So, how would one handle accent marks and such in the URL?

We are using the Ektron CMS, which eventually, all the sites will live there and country specific domains can be redirected to a language and locale specific version of the website.

Hello,

One of my clients has a question on a new Quebec, Canada version of their website. The website content and copy is in the French Canadian language, but the IT Director has asked if, for the purpose of SEO, should the URLs be in French as well?

So, this questions has two parts...

For SEO, should the URL's be in French or left in English, to avoid crawl errors?

For visitor UX, is there any reason to have them in French versus English?
