What is the best setup for conical Links

[Greenpeak]

Should I have the conical link state:

1. www.autoinsurancefremontca.com

2. www.autoinsurancefremontca.com/index.html

3. autoinsurancefremontca.com

Also do you need a conical link on each page if you have more than one page on your site?

Do you mean canonical?

If so, I would recommend http://www.autoinsurancefremontca.com as the canonical tag, and yes you should put this on each of the pages you listed.

Let me know if you have any questions!

If all of those URLs are pointing to the same file on your server, then placing the one canonical tag on it will show up when you try to access all three URLs.

As for the URL to use, I would suggest www.autoinsurancefremontca.com. So you would put the following in the HEAD of this page -

Also, you should probably 301 redirect the non-www version of the URL to the www version (or vice versa). You can do this by putting the following lines in your .htaccess file -

<code class="htaccess" title="in your .htaccess file">RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]</code>
