Country targeting in Google Search Console for Wix sites

Google Search Console has a dedicated International Targeting section that lets you set a country target for your site and see hreflang errors across your multilingual Wix setup. This is one of the most important verification steps after launching a multilingual site — and one of the most overlooked.

Finding the International Targeting Report in GSC

Accessing international targeting in Search Console

• Log into Google Search Console and select your Wix property
• In the left sidebar, scroll to Legacy tools and reports
• Click on International Targeting
• You will see two tabs: Language and Country
• The Language tab shows your hreflang implementation
• The Country tab lets you set a geographic target if your site uses a generic TLD

Reading the Hreflang Error Report

• No return tags error: your target page references another language but that page does not reference back
• Unknown language tag: you have used an invalid ISO language code
• No default locale: no x-default tag is present across your hreflang set
• URL not indexed: a hreflang reference points to a URL that is not indexed in Google
• Multiple hreflang specified: conflicting hreflang values on the same page

Using the Performance Report for International Traffic Analysis

In the Performance section of GSC, you can filter by country to see how each language version of your Wix site is performing. Add a Country dimension to the report and compare impressions, clicks and CTR across each market. This data tells you which language versions are gaining traction and which need more content or backlink investment to rank.
