URL canonicalization Issue

Emailrevealer · 10-16-2008, 12:59 PM

I have had several people tell me I have a URL canonicalization issue.

My site is The Email Tracing Experts, Online Infidelity and Cyber Stalking Investigations and Prevention Services.

Can someone look at this and tell me how to fix it? Also will fixing this make a big difference in my SEO or is it something I can ignore.

I think they're referring to the fact that you can go to either:

- emailrevealer.com
or
- www.emailrevealer.com

and that changes all the link paths on your site accordingly.

This can affect your SEO.

emailrevealer.com requests should redirect to www.emailrevealer.com in order to correct this issue.

This specific canonicalization Issue with WWW can also break the security of some javascripts, so if you're noticing javascript errors on your site, this could also be the cause for that.

Good article I found, should clear this up: SEO advice: url canonicalization
