Canonical Tag help
-
Hello everyone,
We have implemented canonical tag on our website: http://www.indialetsplay.com/
For e.g. on http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=42 we added canonical as http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=all (as it showcase all products)
Our default page is http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers
Is canonical tag implementation right? Or we need to add any other URL.
Please suggest

Hi Ravi!
Just curious—why point the canonical at http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?limit=all rather than http://www.indialetsplay.com/cycling-rollers?

Sorry Ikkie,
Didn't get you.
Please explain with reference to our context.

Hey Ravi
I would take a look at the following resources from Google:
Use canonical URLs
Indicate paginated content
Pagination with rel=“next” and rel=“prev”Reading through and digesting the information on these resources will help you hugely on your website. Take a look and see if these can answer your question. It really depends on how your site is structured and what you are able to implement.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

hey
if you're using for the same products the same product page has dynamic URLs as a result of user session and/or search preference
`https://www.example.com/products?category=dresses&color=green https://example.com/dresses/cocktail?gclid=ABCD https://www.example.com/dresses/green/greendress.html` Your server is configured to serve the same content for the www subdomain or the http protocol.
<code>http://example.com/green-dresses
https://example.com/green-dresses
http://www.example.com/green-dresses</code>

Syntax: 'canonical' vs "canonical" (Apostrophes or Quotes) does it matter?
I have been working on a site and through all the tools (Screaming Frog & Moz Bar) I've used it recognizes the canonical, but does Google? This is the only site I've worked on that has apostrophes. rel='canonical' href='https://www.example.com'/> It's apostrophes vs quotes. Could this error in syntax be causing the canonical not to be recognized? rel="canonical"href="https://www.example.com"/>

Branding and Page Titles - Please Help
Hello, I have a question about page titles. How important is branding here? I'm not referring to the company name, but rather the terminology that's used as "branding language" for a company. For example, let's say that the it would be a good idea to target the keyword "Restaurant Coupons" based on search volume and competition. However, our branding adheres to the language "Dining Offers". Is it considered a bad idea to use "Restaurant Coupons" in the page title? Or is that considered inconsistent branding? Basically, I'm just trying to figure out the correct balance between the SEO value of words and adhering to a company's branding. Any help is appreciated! Thanks,

Help Identifying Unnatural Links
http://bit.ly/XT8yYYHi,Any help with the below will be most appreciated.We received an unnatural links warning in Webmaster Tools and noticed a large drop in our rankings. We downloaded and carried out a full link audit (3639 links) and logged in an excel spreadsheet with the following status: OK, Have Contacted, Can't Contact, Not SureWe have had some success but the majority of the ones we identified are not contactable.We use the dis-avow tool to tell Google of these. We then submitted a reconsideration request where we explained to Google our efforts and that we can supply them with our audit if necessary by email as you can't upload any evidence.A few days later we received a response suggesting that we still have unnatural links. We are a little stuck as we don't know what they can be:1. Is Google actually looking at our dis-avowed links before making this judgement?2. We have missed something that Google is considering bad but we can't see in our audit?Again we need a little help as we are trying to sort this out but can't see what we are falling down on.I can provide our spreadsheet if necessary.Many ThanksLee

Canonical referencing and aspx
The following pages of my website all end up at the same place:
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | IPROdigital
http://example.com/seo/Default.aspx
http://example.com/SEO/
http://example.com/seo
http://example.com/sEo
http://example.com/SeO but we have a really messy URL structure throughout the website. I would like to have a neat URL structure, including for offline marketing so customers can easily memorize or even guess the URL. I'm thinking of duplicating the pages and canonical referencing the original ones with the messy URLs instead of a 301 redirect (done for each individual page of course), because the latter will likely result in a traffic drop. We've got tens of thousands of URLs; some active and some inactive. Bearing in mind that thousands of links already point in to the site and even a small percentage drop in traffic would be a serious problem given low industry margins and high marketing spend, I'd love to hear opinions of people who have encountered this issue and found it problematic or successful. @randfish to the rescue. I hope.0
