Technical on-page elements
Canonicals done right
Every indexable page self-references; variants point at the canonical. Conflicting canonical and sitemap signals are a common silent killer.
Why this lesson matters
This lesson belongs to Technical on-page elements, the part of On-Page SEO where the goal is: make the markup say the same thing your content says.
Read it once, then do it straight away on a real site inside RankAudit. Nothing here is theory for its own sake — every step produces something you can show a client.
Do it now
- 1Open RankAudit with sample data already loaded, so you are not stuck on setup.
- 2Crawl a site and triage the issue list.
- 3Run RankAudit's schema and canonical checks on a template and fix every conflict it reports.
