Inspect language alternates and check a limited set of return links.
Use the Hreflang Checker
What this tool helps you check
International alternatives should point to equivalent localized pages and refer back to each other. Enter a public URL to list rel=alternate hreflang tags, flag invalid-looking codes and check up to four referenced pages for a reciprocal link to the source.
How to use it
- Enter a page with published hreflang tags
- Check each code and destination URL
- Review missing reciprocal links on the limited set of alternates checked
Interpreting the result
This tool cannot prove translation equivalence, full-site consistency or every regional edge case. It checks only the source and up to four public alternate URLs, with bounded requests for safety and speed.
Limitations and next steps
