Changing the main language of the site from Russian to Ukrainian with proper redirects on the website builder platform Khoroshop
We have a website created on the "Khoroshop" platform, where the main language is currently Russian. It is necessary to change the main language to Ukrainian. The task involves implementing proper redirects to avoid losing positions in search engines and maintaining traffic.
Tasks:
1. Change the main language: fully translate the site into Ukrainian, taking into account all interface elements, texts, meta tags, etc.
2. Redirects: set up 301 redirects from Russian-language pages to the corresponding Ukrainian-language ones. This is critically important for maintaining SEO positions.
3. SEO optimization: check and make adjustments to the meta tags (title, description, H1, alt for images) for the Ukrainian-language version of the site to avoid losing positions in search engines.
4. Preservation of URL structure: if possible, maintain the URL structure or properly set up new URLs for Ukrainian-language pages with redirection from old Russian-language URLs.
5. Indexing analysis: ensure proper indexing of the Ukrainian-language version of the site in Google and other search engines.
6. Testing: check the operation of redirects and SEO settings after making changes to ensure that positions in the search results do not decrease.
