"so im telling google to index my blog and not my homepage?"
Yes, although your blog shows the same content as the homepage for me.
-
so im telling google to index my blog and not my homepage? is fixing it as easy as going into my cms and just taking out the tag? im pretty new to some aspects of seo so im having a hard time understanding certain things. also. why would i have the canonical tag being used in my page at all? i didnt put it there.
-
I do see that your homepage has a canonical to this page, which means you're telling Google to index http://www.clearvisiondesign.co/blog/ instead of http://www.clearvisiondesign.co/
-
www.clearvisiondesign.co is our website. and in our services page there are certain services that have the tag rel=canonicalwww.clearvisondesign.co/portfolio/ or something. and we need them to link to our services not our portfolio. we are using wordpress as our cms

Large Global Site Structure
Hi, I have a question about the advised structure for a website that I'm currently building. It's a large international brand with it's main office in the UK. The main website is the .com but there is a growing international franchisee network. I've built the .com site on Wordpress but I'm not sure if I the best way forward would be to create each international website on a separate hosted site or just include it in the .com Wordpress structure using the The WordPress Multilingual Plugin. So to sum up... should I build the entire global network on one domain and then use WPML plugin or should I build separate websites for each International franchisee? Hope some one can educate me on the best route to take. Thanks Moz Community

Rel=next and rel=prev meta tags
Hi,
Web Design | | RocoClothing
We have recently implemented the rel=next and rel=prev meta tags on the
category pages of our website. Currently for example if on page 2 we have the following: href="http://www.rococlothing.co.uk/boys/boys-suits/" />
href="http://www.rococlothing.co.uk/boys/boys-suits/?p=1" />
href="http://www.rococlothing.co.uk/boys/boys-suits/?p=3" /> For each page we are using the same canonical tag which is the url for
the 1st page in the category.
Is this the correct way to impletment it or should the canonical tag for
page 2 be as follows: href="http://www.rococlothing.co.uk/boys/boys-suits/?p=2" /> I have also seen some companies ommiting the canonical tag on pages
after page 1 and just using the prev and nexts. Could anyone advise as to what the ideal implementation would be for this? Regards

Is this a good WP template for this site?
I need some advice, please. My cousin wants to take his site; http://www.gaport.com/ and move it to this wordpress theme http://themeforest.net/item/elvyre-retina-ready-html5-template/6639095. I have two reservations about this, but before I say anything I'd like the community's feedback, please. 1. It's a brand new theme. It's not even out for two weeks. That strikes me as a giant red flag. ** Just to clarify, i's not a new theme; it's new for WP. 2. It only costs $15. I can't tell what's wrong with this theme, but "you get what you paid for" is a cliche for a reason, and that price seems way too low for something quality. Are these legitimate concerns? Do you all have any recommendations for a theme that might suit him better? I'd appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks, Ruben

Does anyone use Ultimento for Magento?
We're working on a re-design and want to start with SEO rather than leave it until the end. Of course, saving time and money on a custom template would be great. Ultimento found at www.ultimento.com boasts great SEO features. Has anybody used it? Please comment. Thanks in advance! Kevin

Can SEO Moz perform a full site crawl and provide a report showing all URLs within an existing domain?
We are conducting a site redesign and need to get an idea of all pages that are out there on our domain (in some report fashion). This would help for discovery and cleanup as we re-work the site and move to a new CMS. Thanks
