Canonical and robots without confusion

Canonical and robots help search engines understand which page to index. A wrong setting can hide an important URL or select the wrong version.

What to check

  • Canonical points to the intended URL.
  • The page is not marked noindex without a reason.
  • robots.txt does not block important sections.
  • HTTP and HTTPS versions do not conflict.
  • Pagination and filters do not create unnecessary duplicates.

Common errors

Canonical to home

All pages point to one URL, and search loses important landing pages.

Accidental noindex

A tag remains after testing and hides the page from search.

Blocked CSS/JS

Search engines may understand a page worse when important resources are blocked.
