Can I use canonical links outside of the head section?
-
I been implementing a Joomla site and my site has different ways of accessing several links therefore I need to use the canonical tag.
Now I'm using Joomla 1.6, and most of the extensions that I've seen until now don't provide me the expected or they do other things that I just don't want.
Therefore other than modifying the code or creating an extension myself I've decided to look into placing the canonical elements in the page.

I will thank you.

I see, it was a long shot anyways.
Thank you for your response and for the referral.

A great article. I'd suggest you read through that post completely.

Unfortunately you can't, as Dr. Pete explained in the following blog post: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/6-extreme-canonical-tricks

Does anyone have solely used fresh web explorer for link building?
hello, As far I am concerned one of the best link building strategies is broken link building. But what about if you reverse the tactic and you build links using only fresh web explorer? Anyone have tried this or not yet? If yes, results are good? I will try it soon on a new site ...and some info regarding results would be appreciated. Once I use it by my self and first links are indexed I will provide more data regarding the campaign... Thanks

Canonical
I have two identical sites with different urls. I placed the canonical tag in the 2nd site. Do I need to make all the internal links in the 2nd site point to the 1st site too? FIRST SITE: www.aerlawgroup.com SECOND SITE: www.losangelescitycriminaldefenseattorney.com So should the internal links in www.losangelescitycriminaldefenseattorney.com point to www.aerlgroup.com? As well as using the canonical tag? Or does the canonical tag make it irrelevant to point the internal links from the 2nd site to the first?
