About the Canonical Tag


A canonical tag is an HTML element that helps webmasters prevent duplicate content issues in SEO by specifying the 'canonical' or 'preferred' version of a web page. It is crucial when similar content exists on multiple URLs, as it helps search engines understand which version to show in search results, thus avoiding potential ranking penalties.
