After making a multi-lingual blog on tstory. I was looking for a way to improve search results for each content when I came across how to help Google to identify pages with the same content but in different languages.
Implementation
The implementation is not hard. We just have to add link tags with 'rel="alternate"' on every page that is related. Insert the two-character language code for the 'lang_code' and the actual addresses for the 'URL'
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="lang_code" href="url" />
Example
Let's see how we can actually do this with the multi-lingual blog on tstory. In the admin page, go to 'blog management' -> 'edit skin' -> 'HTML edit' -> 'HTML' then add link tags with 'rel="alternate"'
<link id="al-kr" rel="alternate" hreflang="kr" href="" />
<link id="al-en" rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="" />
I omitted the address so that we can add the address dynamically for different pages not inserting each address on each page
Go to <body> tag and add the code that inserts the address dynamically below
<script>
if (document.querySelector('.lan-en-btn a')) {
document.getElementById('al-en').href = document.querySelector('.lan-en-btn a').href
document.getElementById('al-kr').href = document.querySelector('.lan-kr-btn a').href
}
</script>
