Your canonical tag will appear here.
Quick checklist
- Use an absolute URL with https://, exactly as the page should be indexed.
- Pick one version (www or non-www) and use it consistently everywhere.
- Place the tag inside the <head> of every page, even pages without duplicates.
Frequently asked questions
What does a canonical tag do?
It tells search engines which URL is the preferred version of a page when similar or duplicate versions exist, so ranking signals are not split.
Should every page have one, even without duplicates?
Yes. A self-referencing canonical on every page removes ambiguity and is considered best practice.
Does Google always respect canonical tags?
Usually yes, but a canonical is a hint, not a strict rule. Google can ignore it if the pages look too different from each other.
