      Hello all.

      I just received my first report fro Moz Analytics. Signed up here to see what problems my site might have and find out how to fix them.

      On all of my issue pages I see notice with black dot saying that my urls are

      Rel Canonical

      Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.

      I know that recently my web developer set up so that every url on my website has a rel=canonical as I think there was an issue with trailing slash.

      Is this to be considered an issue or I can just leave it?

      Thank you guys.

      Regards,

      Armands

        Hello, and welcome to Moz!

        Using rel canonical on each page to itself is okay and sometimes even advised. Moz tells you about it, but it is nothing to be alarmed at. I know that is a bit confusing, as I have seen this question a few times. Just treat it as a notice nothing more.

        Hope this helps,

        Don

          • When connecting your Google Analytics account to your Moz account, Moz provides a drop-down of accounts & UA codes to select from. Where is Moz pulling those selection options from?
