other methods' tabindex="-1">How to specify a canonical URL with rel="canonical" and other methods</h1> <p> To specify a <a href="/search/docs/crawling-indexing/canonicalization">canonical URL</a> for duplicate or very similar pages to Google Search, you can indicate your preference using a number of methods. These are, in order of how strongly they can influence canonicalization: </p> <ul> <li> <a href="#redirects-method"><b>Redirects</b></a>: A strong signal that the target of the redirect should become canonical. </li> <li> <a href="#rel-canonical-link-method"><b><code translate="no" dir="ltr">rel="canonical"</code> <code translate="no" dir="ltr">link</code> annotations</b></a>: A strong signal that the specified URL should become canonical. </li> <li> <a href="#sitemap-method"><b>Sitemap inclusion</b></a>: A weak signal that helps the URLs that are included in a sitemap become canonical. </li> </ul> <p> Keep in mind that these methods can stack and thus become more effective when combined. This means that when you use two or more of the methods, that will increase the chance of your preferred canonical URL appearing in search results. </p> <p> While we encourage you to use these methods, none of them are required; your site will likely do just fine without specifying a canonical preference. That's because if you don't specify a canonical URL, <a href="/search/docs/crawling-indexing/canonicalization#canonical-how">Google will identify which version of the URL is objectively the best version to show to users in Search</a>. </p> <aside class="key-point"> <b>If you use a CMS, such as WordPress, Wix, or Blogger</b>, you might not be able to edit your HTML directly. Instead, your CMS might have a search engine settings page or some other mechanism to tell search engines about the canonical URL.

This means that signals from other sites to <code translate="no" dir="ltr">https://example.com/dresses/cocktail?gclid=ABCD</code> get consolidated with links to <code translate="no" dir="ltr">https://www.example.com/dresses/green/greendress.html</code> if the latter becomes canonical. </li> <li> <b>To simplify tracking metrics for a piece of content.</b> With a variety of URLs, it can be more challenging for you to get consolidated metrics for a specific piece of content. </li> <li> <b>To avoid spending crawling time on duplicate pages.</b> You may want Googlebot to get the most out of your site, so it's better for it to spend time crawling new (or updated) pages on your site, rather than crawling duplicate versions of the same content. </li> </ul> <h2 id="best-practices" data-text="Best practices" tabindex="-1">Best practices</h2> <p>For all canonicalization methods, follow these best practices:</p> <ul> <li> <b>Don't</b> use the robots.txt file for canonicalization purposes. </li> <li> <b>Don't</b> use the URL removal tool for canonicalization. It hides <em>all</em> versions of a URL from Search. </li> <li> <b>Don't</b> specify different URLs as canonical for the same page using different canonicalization techniques (for example, don't specify one URL in a sitemap, but a different URL for that same page using <code translate="no" dir="ltr">rel="canonical"</code>). </li> <li> <b>Don't</b> specify a URL fragment as canonical, as <a href="/search/docs/crawling-indexing/url-structure#fragments">Google generally doesn't support URL fragments</a>. </li> <li> <b>We don't recommend</b> using <a href="/search/docs/crawling-indexing/block-indexing"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">noindex</code></a> to prevent selection of a canonical page within a single site, because it will completely block the page from Search. <code translate="no" dir="ltr">rel="canonical"</code> <code translate="no" dir="ltr">link</code> annotations are the preferred solution. </li> <li> If you're using <a href="/search/docs/specialty/international/localized-versions"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">hreflang</code> elements</a>, make sure to specify a canonical page in the same language, or the best possible substitute language if a canonical page doesn't exist for the same language. </li> <li> When linking within your site, link to the canonical URL rather than a duplicate URL.
