    Hello,
    In one of my website we’re using multi language and for that we’re using Polylang plugin.
    We’ve two languages: 1. Bangla and 2. English
    Bangla is the default language for the website.
    But when we search in google “polar ice cream” or “polar bangladesh” it shows us first link as English home page link but we need to show Bangla home page link first, how can we do it?

    Thanks.

    Hi @tokyobiyori , thank you for reply.
    Here is the default language home page URL: https://polarbd.com/bn
    And here is the English language home page URL: https://polarbd.com/en
    In that default language home page I put meta description with these two keyphrases: “polar ice cream” and “polar bangladesh” but also in google, if user search by “polar ice cream” then it shows English home page but we want to show default language home page.

    Thank you.

    Hello @ashique12009,

    Thanks for your reply and this information. I’ve looked on my side, and I see first results in English, but I also see results in Bangla:

    https://a.supportally.com/i/dvQcW9

    Now, kindly note that these search results vary from person to person.

    Google takes into account multiple variables to display search results, such as the words of the search query, relevance and usability of pages, expertise of sources, and the user’s location and settings.

    Therefore, there’s really no way to determine which pages appear first from a site on search results. Google selects automatically which pages from your site display first to a user depending on the factors I mentioned above.

    Google covers this in their documentation here:

    https://www.google.com/search/howsearchworks/how-search-works/ranking-results/

    If you want the Bangla pages to appear first for queries such as “polar bangladesh”, make sure you include this keyphrase in your site’s content so it can appear when someone from Bangladesh makes inquiries with that keyphrase. English results are more likely to appear for “polar bangladesh” as the keyphrase is in English mainly. The Bangla equivalent of the keyphrase would get preference (normally) if the search query is in Bangla.

    I hope this helps clarify, but please let me know if you have any questions.
