What Is a Canonical Tag?
A canonical tag tells search engines which URL should be treated as the preferred version of a webpage when multiple URLs contain similar or duplicate content.
How to Use the Canonical Checker
Paste the HTML source of a webpage into the checker. UtilityGrove will find canonical link tags and display the URLs they point to.
Why Canonical Tags Matter
Canonical tags help search engines understand which version of a page should be considered the primary URL. They can also help consolidate signals between duplicate or closely related URLs.
This tool checks the HTML you provide. It does not independently crawl or inspect a live webpage.
