What does the canonical tag checker do?

Crawls webpage URLs for canonical tags.

The canonical tag checker crawls the URLs from any website and displays the canonical tag information in Google Sheets. You can analyze the results inside our sheets interface or export the data to another SEO tool or Excel.

Find missing canonical tags.

The canonical tag checker identifies URLs that lack a canonical tag. Pages without canonical tags can lead to duplicate content issues, where search engines may try to index multiple versions of the same page. This tool helps you pinpoint these URLs, add canonical tags, and ensure proper content indexing.

Find incorrect canonical tags.

The canonical tag checker also detects incorrect canonical tags, such as those pointing to the wrong URL or mismatched tags. Incorrect canonical tags can confuse search engines, leading to improper indexing and potential SEO issues. This tool highlights these discrepancies, allowing you to correct the canonical tags and maintain the integrity of your site’s SEO.
