Hi everyone again

After a lot of help from this community i think (and i say think) i finally have it.
Is this setup correct for a bilingual site?
( .gr/ for the Greek version and .en/ for the english version)

http://www.example.com and http://example.com
--> 301 to https://example.com (hreflang="x-default)

http://www.example.gr and http://example.gr and http://example.com/el/ --> 301 to https://example.gr (hreflang="el)

http://example.com/en/ --> 301 https://example.com/en/ (hreflang="en")

thanks everyone?

It's a great question and I'd like to be sure we have canvassed all opinions for you.

I'm not sure if ;+Alistair Lattimore ;will be able to make it to tonight's HOA or not but hopefully he will see this later on today and at least be able to respond here. We will be addressing this question in tonight's DSQ HOA. ;
