Rel Canonical ? please help again!
-
Hi,
I have been looking at the on page section and the grading. And I have noticed on nearly all of my pages an error.
-
No More Than One Canonical URL Tag
Moderate fix
<dl>
<dt>Number of Canonical tags</dt>
<dd>2</dd>
<dt>Explanation</dt>
<dd>The canonical URL tag is meant to be employed only a single time on an individual URL (much like the title element or meta description). To ensure the search engines properly parse the canonical source, employ only a single version of this tag.</dd>
<dt>Recommendation</dt>
<dd>Remove all but a single canonical URL tag</dd>
</dl>
<a class="more expanded">Minimize</a>
Please how do I make sure these canonicals are working properly, My rankings are getting worst fro long tail and short tail keywords. I am not even ranking for the main keywords "Probate" at all now! Our site is probate, we sell probate, we talk aout probate and now we are out of the top 200???
Kind Regards
Elissa HAyes

Hi Elissa
It looks like you have 2 plug ins each producing a canonical tag on your Wordpress site, I will have a look at the plugins you have installed and report what I find.
With a little luck we can get this issue resolved later today.
