Canonical Tag help
-
Hello everyone,
We have implemented canonical tag on our website: http://www.indialetsplay.com/
For e.g. on http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=42 we added canonical as http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=all (as it showcase all products)
Our default page is http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers
Is canonical tag implementation right? Or we need to add any other URL.
Please suggest

Hi Ravi!
Just curious—why point the canonical at http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=all rather than http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?

Sorry Ikkie,
Didn't get you.
Please explain with reference to our context.

Hey Ravi
I would take a look at the following resources from Google:
Use canonical URLs
Indicate paginated content
Pagination with rel=“next” and rel=“prev”Reading through and digesting the information on these resources will help you hugely on your website. Take a look and see if these can answer your question. It really depends on how your site is structured and what you are able to implement.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

hey
if you're using for the same products the same product page has dynamic URLs as a result of user session and/or search preference
`https://www.example.com/products?category=dresses&color=green https://example.com/dresses/cocktail?gclid=ABCD https://www.example.com/dresses/green/greendress.html` Your server is configured to serve the same content for the www subdomain or the http protocol.
<code>http://example.com/green-dresses
https://example.com/green-dresses
http://www.example.com/green-dresses</code>

What is better? No canonical or two canonicals to different pages?
I have a blogger site that is adding parameters and causing duplicate content. For example: www.mysite.com/?spref=bl
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | TMI.com
www.mysite.com/?commentPage=1 www.mysite.com/?m=1 www.mysite.com/?m=0 I decided to implement a canonical tag on these pages pointing to the correct version of the page. However, for the parameter ?m=0, the canonical keeps pointing to itself. Ex: www.mysite.com/?m=0 The canonical = www.mysite.com/?m=0 So now I have two canonicals for the same page. My question is if I should leave it, and let Google decide, or completely remove the canonicals from all pages?0 -

tags inside <a>tags - is this bad?</a>
Hi, I'm currently redesigning my website, and in many places, I've now decided to make links a little bit more obvious for the user, using tags within a <a>tag in order to make the entire block of text clickable. I was just wondering if this could have a negative impact in the search engines. My gut feeling is no, since I'm actually improving usability, but I guess it could have an impact on how Google looks at the anchor text? An example of the HTML is as follows: </a> <a></a> <a></a> [Cristal Night Club Hotels <address>1045 5th Street

Do I need a canonical tag on the 404 error page?
Per definition, a 404 is displayed for different url (any not existing url ...). As I try to clean my website following SEOmoz pro advices, SEOmoz notify me of duplicate content on urls leading to a 404 🙂 This is I guess not that important, but just curious: should we add a cononical tag to the template returning the 404, with a canonical url such as www.mysite.com/404 ?

Canonical tag vs 301
What is the reason that 301 is preferred and not rel canonical tag when it comes to implementing redirect. Page rank will be lost in both cases. So, why prefer one over the other ?

Rel Canonical Syntax
My IT department is getting ready to setup the rel canonical tag, finally. I took a look at the code on our test server and see that they are using a single quote in the tag syntax (see code block below). Should I be concerned? Will Google read those lines the same? <link rel='canonical' href='[http://www.wholesalecostumeclub.com/easter-costumes/bunny-suits](view-source:http://www.wholesalecostumeclub.com/easter-costumes/bunny-suits)' />VS. **versus** <link rel="canonical" href="[http://www.wholesalecostumeclub.com/easter-costumes/bunny-suits](view-source:http://www.wholesalecostumeclub.com/easter-costumes/bunny-suits)" />
