⭐ Best tips for WordPress Multilingual SEO
[Music] hi everyone in this video i want to talk about the wordpress multilingual seo here i show you the search console that i have and how it had helped me to have an international website with multilingual plugin because i'm now aiming for different languages on my content and as you can see here honestly if i only have only focus on spanish-speaking countries probably i wouldn't get these extra clicks from different countries there are besides mexico and any other spanish-speaking such colombia and as you can see mainly the traffic of my website has come from india and honestly thanks to the indian visitors that i have on my blog is that i have kept and gave me like this wheel to continue with my blog because at the beginning seeing no results on certain search engines honestly it pulls you down and honestly changing to a multilingual wordpress website can help you as you can see now i'm getting more visitors from the us also from germany france and many other countries if we can keep further around so this is just a brief example of how a multilingual seo plan and strategy can also help your your website as you can see that trend is growing as i'm can keep producing more content and also working a lot with the backlinks that at the end i will talk about some international backlinks that yes it will help us because since i will go to that test of around 12 months and as you can see here up till probably july is when i started or before it's early july i started with the also a backlink strategy and i have seen more results but way before i just was concentrating on content and also on international content or and to start talking about what will you need for an international seo strategy and also for a multilingual seo for wordpress of course you will need a plugin i have already talked a lot in how to use wpml in wig lots and to brief mention these two plugins wpml and weaklot are really helpful for any seo because both of them will help you with some important aspects and that you will have to cover if you're aiming for an international market so wpml it's the one that i recommended for content uh oriented websites and we load for all the e-commerce since it's it's connected via an api so it won't you won't have this any problem or issue with compatibility with other plugins or if you have to deactivate some other plugins you don't have to really worry about sweet lot wpml yes it's compatible but sometimes if you have to deactivate it it might crash a little bit your website will or some parts of the back end of your wordpress but to continue this example of how to run a multilingual seo here in wordpress i'm i'm using as an example my my blog and i'm going directly to talk about the url format because as you're beginning or if you already are running your website and if you want to aim for international markets you can do it in different uh following different strategies and one is either you you have soup folders like for example i have slash ar for arabic language content or if you have like for german it will be the e and so on and this is one of the most recommended because you're keeping all your back link strategies under one domain so if you were you have a small team or you have a reduced budget then you will probably try to prefer to aim for growing first one of your domains and eventually you can change to a different domain languages and using this strategy you can either use subdomains or different domains that will end with dot d e dot fr and so on according to the language that you're aiming and that will be even a more uh targeted to the country that you're aiming so it will be even better for search engines or at least it will be even more knowledgeable this is one of the big recommendations that you have to decide what could be best for you following up if you go here in the settings area on wpml and if you have the advanced translation editor you can follow up the installation process on the wpml review video but going straight forward i'm also going to talk about the page url the url slot translation because you need and like this to recommend also in weak lot it's possible but you need an advanced plan to translate the url but to have uh this option uh in the advanced translation you have to write to recommend the translate setting here activated so that you can actually change it from the advanced and i have here one example of one blog post i already have rank month installed of if you don't know what's ragmath it's another seo plugin for wordpress probably for the sale community and the big trend that it's now everyone's starting to move to rank math because even the free version has a lot to offer the pro version also has the schema the schema markup that you can easily add but talking about the international seo as any other sale plugin you will have to write your title and also change your urls log if you're aiming here i'm not really optimizing but i will say that i'm aiming for trends in digital marketing and i have it here in the description and also i'm adding these focus keywords so that i can at least follow up the recommendations of to aim for a better but right now it's just us an example and if we go to the advanced relation editor you can do it from your dashboard you will see here in the first lines that you will have the rank math description the keyword and also you will see here the title these will be the ones that will appear for the search engines and when you're aiming for the international seo of course it's important to have an an accurate translation as for example here in wpml they're using depot which is a better trans translation engine that it's even more accurate so that translation is better but if you're doing also with some other native uh speakers of the languages that you're aiming then it will be also an even better translation but here in the example i want to show you that in the description i already have what it could be one of the keywords in the spanish language i have it here in the description and i also have it here on that title so in that way you're also focusing your keyword to your international market and also another important aspect is the url here we have it translated here it will automatically add the slashes or if you want to add it by yourself but i also have here again the translation so you will save and you will have the post uh both pages in english spanish or any other language and of course uh if you are also following the basic sales stuff you also will need to work on your on your h1 h2 title tags and so on the optimization of the words inside of the content the length of the content and so on but that's more of the focus on the basic sale another important stuff or thing to mention when we are talking about the multilingual seo is to have the hr flanks in this case the use of wpml adds automatically the hre flanks so as you can see here we have the english english version and the spanish version so we don't actually have to do anything here it's everything done automatically also with wiglot it stays the canonical tags so in this way uh we are telling two crawlers that there is an english version and a spanish version and a german and so on and there will be uh and this will help also to the site map to prove that we have different content and that we don't have actually with the use of these plugins to do anything else so let me go here to rank math to the site map settings so that you can see here is a message the thing that i'm telling you that rank math generates automatically the assignment and wpml takes care of the rests so when a search engine bot visits any posts it will be shown the hr flank tag so in the crawling you don't have to really worry about that so coming back here to the code of the page we can see here in the english version that in the title we have here the one in english and the description that we have given also in the spanish we see here the spanish title and the spanish version so this will be the one that the crawlers will read and eventually they should show but also another important recommendations that i'm giving you it's to do that your keyword research on the targeted language if you're having same brush it's a really good tool uber suggests you can get some results for free this is one of from neil patel is really recommended and now going to the backlink sales strategy there are different website services they can help you with the link building fajio is one of it and also the health but these are mainly oriented more i think for or i can say that for the us market or the uk market and well for the spanish-speaking countries or they here in public suites they also have sponsored posts where you can also start building your backlinks from mainly from spanish-speaking countries and also get lincol that's also a company from barcelona and spain but uh as i have seen they are mainly spanish-speaking so if you're from another country and if you have some other recommendation of some other international backlinks websites please write on the comments and in overall this is some tips that i can give you that that have helped me to build up my performance on the international seo and as you can see it's slowly and steady growing so i hope that even in the future it's it's growing even more so if you have some any more comments if i have missed something don't hesitate to write thanks for watching [Music] you
