Yep. New site rolled out and still battling with developers to get those done. The canonical should be in place, but still trying to get www as THE URL. Working on it.

And, I hope to get around to updating the tips. Been swamped lately. I know a lot has changed.

Hello Richard,

I can see you mention canonical URLs, however the website you manage SEO for – Framesdirect.com still has two versions of the site: both www and non-www.

Can you please explain why you have not changed the URLs to either www only or otherwise? Is this on purpose?

Thank you,
Alex

I was searching for some information I could use to help optimize my sites further for the search engines and came across this great post…

Jeeeez that must have taken an incredibly long time to write so thank you for doing it. There is an awful lot of information to use there and most of it is simple to apply. I know for sure some of my domains have index appended to the main domain so I am off to sort that now, this really is a treasure trove of information, somethings I have never ever even heard of.

Thanks again..you have smashed it with this one! LOL

Try placing the canonical tag as below in the head of your HTML code. The URL in it should be for the page that you want the search engines to recognize as the URL to be indexed:

So, let’s say http://www.yoursite.com/subfolder/url-near-duplicate.html is the URL that is basically a duplicate of your URL to be indexed, http://www.yoursite.com/subfolder/url-you-want-indexed.html, then the latter would be the URL placed in the canonical tag.

The canonical tag suggests to the spiders which URL to count and index. As is always the case with the search engines, there’s no guarantee, but this would be the next thing to try.
