Frequently Asked Questions
What is a canonical tag?
A canonical tag tells search engines which version of a page is the "preferred" version when multiple versions exist. It helps prevent duplicate content issues.
Why do I need a canonical tag?
Canonical tags prevent duplicate content penalties, consolidate ranking signals, and ensure search engines index the correct version of your pages.
Should the canonical URL be absolute or relative?
Always use absolute URLs (with https://) for canonical tags. Relative URLs may cause issues with search engine crawlers.
What does self-referencing mean?
A self-referencing canonical means the page's canonical URL points to itself. This is normal and recommended for most pages.
