New Canonical Link Tag - Duplicate Content

html, web design, tutorialsshad @ 6:44 pm

Google, Yahoo! and MSN have come to a consensus on a new tag that can steer the engines straight on duplicate content.

The new tag is the <link> tag. It tells search engines which URL is the correct one to index.

Similar to meta data tags - the link tag goes in the <head> section of the page. Here is an example:

<link rel=”canonical” href=”http://www.lunawebs.com/blog” />

You can see more details on the canonical link tag here.
