      Hi, I've just had my initial report from Moz and it says my pages are missing rel="canonical". I'm using the Yoast SEO plugin on my WordPress site which adds these automatically. I have also checked the source code for my pages and can see rel="canonical". What has gone wrong please?

        Hi again, Katie!

        The reason you're seeing the "No Rel=Canonical" tag Insight is that we weren't able to crawl the homepage for this site, https://barn2.co.uk. We got an 804 crawl attempt error for that page, meaning that we weren't able to crawl it to see that canonical tag.

        If you can see the canonical tags on your site and you know they're there, trust the evidence! Our tools just ran into some issues crawling your site that meant that we couldn't read that tag.

        I hope this helps explain! If you have more questions, feel free to reach out to us at help@moz.com and we'll get your questions all squared away. 🙂
