International SEO tips - HREFlang basics

**There seems to be a technical issue with the video recording I made on Canva, where the slide covering what HREFlangs are is skipped over. Here's the link to the recording if you'd like to see that part of the presentation!**

--------------------------------------------

What are HREFlangs? How do they work? What are the most common ways they can be implemented? I answer all of your burning questions in this short presentation I put together to help fellow marketers or anyone managing an international website who wants to learn more about this subject.

I'm not the slickest presenter, but I hope you find this content helpful and you have learnt something new today. Please give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel.

I'd love to hear from you guys on your experiences and challenges with implementing HREFlang tags, and any additional tips (or corrections!) that may help others.

Thanks for watching,
Sofia :)

Hi Sofia, great video, I wonder if you can help me to clarify the following doubt:  

I have two separate domains, with completely different names that I will use to build two brand new websites. The domain for Spanish speakers all over the world is "ahorratiempo.org" and the domain for English speakers all over the world is "savestime.org", each website will be installed in their own separate hosting account -- The content will be translated manually by me (1 to 1 translation, same structure, same content ) from spanish to english.

Now my question:
In this specific case, do I need to implement "hreflang" to avoid "Duplicate content" issues and this in turn damages my SEO, or is it Not necessary since each website will be totally separated in separate installations and with its different domain name ? ?

I'm using WordPress.

Thanks a Lot for your help!!
