Google webmaster tools suggest you add Hreflang in your website. It tells the search engine about the language and region of your blog so that the people searching in that particular language or region can easily find you.

For example, if your blog language is English, then the use of hreflang will allow your site to be ranked for the people who are searching for a particular topic in that language or who live in that country. It allows our site to reach the geo-targeted audience in our territory or region.

Now you have understood what is hreflang. Let's learn how can we add it to our blog.

Hreflang tag can be placed between <head> and </head> tag in any website. Similarly, paste the hreflang tag between <head> and </head> tag in your blogger blog by going to Dashboard and template then Edit HTML. An example of hreflang for the website using English as their blog language.
