Inconsistent Language & Region Confirmation Links

What This Means

URLs with inconsistent language and regional return links to them. This is where a return link has a different language or regional value than the URL is referencing itself.

What Triggers This Issue

This issue is triggered when URLs have hreflang annotations with inconsistent language or regional return links. For example:

https://www.getasky.com/fr/technical-seo/ Has the hreflang annotations:

<link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr-fr" href="https://www.getasky.com/fr/technical-seo/" /> <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-gb" href="https://www.getasky.com/technical-seo/" /> But https://www.getasky.com/technical-seo/ has the hreflang annotations: <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-gb" href="https://www.getasky.com/technical-seo/" /> <link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr-ca" href="https://www.getasky.com/fr/technical-seo/" />

How To Fix

Ensure alternate pages include the same language and regional values in its hreflang annotation return links as the page declares within its own.
