SEO and multilanguage knowledgebase


Remitur

Recommended Posts

I have a quite large KB, mostly written in three different languages.

 

Does exist any way to get the three different versions separately indexed for each language?

So, if a french user (for example) make a google search for a french keyword, he will get the french version of my kb article?

 

Any trick or any best practice to suggest?

In a month, no feedback ... :-(

Is my question silly, or is it not important?

 

I specify a little more details about the problem:

 

- for the kb article in the main language, you have a SEO-friendly URL such:

 

http://mydomain.com/knowledgebase/99/how-to-find-an-horcrux.html

 

Otherwise. for others language, you have an URL such as:

 

http://mydomain.com/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=99&language=italian

 

Will be this second URL be indexed?

In the <head> section there's no META TAG about language. How Google will know that the page is in different language?

If you use whmcs built-in translation fields for each article then the friendly url will apply for each language, example:

english: yoursite.com/14/how-todo-this.html

french: yoursite.com/14/comment-faire-ceci.html

spanish: yoursite.com/14/como-hacer-eso.html

 

 

 

Just set your language to english or whatever before clicking on an article link:

/knowledgebase.php?language=English

then click on an article link and you will see it's "english friendly url".

 

Now do the same with another language etc
