    Hi everyone,

    I have a simple question : Is it better for SEO to to put the language in the URL for content on a website ? Something like this :

    French version : http://www.???.com/fr/accueil
    English Version : http://www.???.com/en/home

    I want to know if I should do a default language version with or without the language in the URL.

    Thanks for your help!

    If your domain name uses the language why not. If you have english then french it would look strange.

    I could not hurt so if you can make TLD domain name in each language for each site fine.

    yeah, it's a good idea. using subdomains for your languages is not a good idea but using them as a folder like /en/content is a good idea
