          We speak Persian and all people search in Persian on Google. But I read in some sources that the url should be in English. Please tell me which language to use for url writing?
          For example, I brought down two models:

            @ghesta one caveat though: in some cases, you may want to transliterate the characters from the page's language (Persian) into latin characters, or even use English version of the URLs. Yes, Google claims that non-latin characters are supported, in some cases, you still may want to do transliteration, especially if you manage a large website, or support many languages, for tracking and reporting purposes.

                Always use the language of the intended user/page.
                I have to assume people talk about English as they're talking about an English search engine but if your users are searching in Persian and looking for a Persian then why not specify the page is in Persian.

                If you wanted you could create an English version of the page though if you are not targeting English and your audience will not use it I wouldn't worry about it.

                in short: always use the language tag for the page the correlates with the on-page language.

                  Using 410 To Remove URLs Starting With Same Word

                  We had a spam injection a few months ago.  We successfully cleaned up the site and resubmitted to google.  I recently received a notification showing a spike in 404 errors. All of the URLS have a common word at the beginning injected via the spam: sitename.com/mono
                  sitename.com/mono.php?buy-good-essays
                  sitename.com/mono.php?professional-paper-writer There's about 100 total URLS with the same syntax with the word "mono" in them.  Based on my research, it seems that it would be best to serve a 410.  I wanted to know what the line of HTACCESS code would be to do that in bulk for any URL that has the word "mono" after the sitename.com/

                  Should I use a canonical URL for images uploaded to a blog post in Wordpress?

                  Hi, I have a wordpress website that has articles/news posts witch contain imagery. I've noticed that in the Media Library, when you upload an image to a blog post it generates a new permalink ...article-name/article-image-01.jpg I have Yoast SEO plugin and have the option to set a canonical URL for this image. Should I point it back to the actual article? Thanks for any helpers with this.

                  Best practice for URL - Language/country

                  Hi, We are planning on having our website localized into more languages. We already have an English and German version. The German version is currently a sub-domain: www.example.com --> English version de.example.com --> German version Is this recommended? Or is it always better to have URLs with language prefixes such a: www.example.com/de www.example.com/es Which is a better practice in terms of SEO?

                  How do I deindex url parameters

                  Google indexed a bunch of our URL  parameters. I'm worried about duplicate content. I used the URL parameter tool in webmaster to set it so future parameters don't get indexed. What can I do to remove the ones that have already been indexed? For example, Site.com/products and site.com/products?campaign=email have both been indexed as separate pages even though they are the same page. If I use a no index I'm worried about de indexing the product page. What can I do to just deindexed the URL parameter version? Thank you!

                  Should the date be included in news URLs

                  My website is not a news or magazine site, but we do have a news section updated 2-3 times a week with industry related news. We are working on a new structure for the URLs.
                  Should the date be included in the URL? From this article from Google I understand that as long as we submit a news sitemap it doesnt matter whether or not numbers are included in the URL, correct? https://support.google.com/news/publisher/answer/68323?topic=11665

                  Cyrillic letter in URL - Encoding

                  Hi all We are launching our site in Russia. As far as I can see by searching Google all sites have URLs in latin letters. Is there a special reason for this? - It seems that cyrillic letters also work. My technical staff says that it might give some encoding problems. Can anyone give me some insight into this? Thanks in advance.. / Kenneth

                  Someone is redirecting their url to mine

                  Hello, I have just discovered that a company in Poland www.realpilot.pl is directing their domain to ours www.transair.co.uk. We have not authorised this, neither do we want this. I have contacted the company and the webmaster to get it removed. If you search for the domain name www.realpilot.pl we (www.transair.co.uk) come up top. My biggest worry is that we will get penalised by Google for this re-direct as it appears to be done using some kind of frame. Does anyone know anything about this kind of thing? Many Thanks Rob Martin

                  Use of Meta Tag - MSSmartTagsPreventParsing

                  We've inherited some sites from another developer that had the following tag: All references I can find to it are from 2004.  What is the purpose and is it worth including in pages/sites we build?
