      Hi,

      I have a Product Page, say www.example.com/product-title/.
      Canonical URL is www.example.com/product-title/

      I want to change its URL to www.example.com/product-title-2/
      Canonical URL is www.example.com/product-title-2/
      Can't do 301 Redirect.

      Is SEO Juice passed from www.example.com/product-title/ to www.example.com/product-title-2/ ?

      Thanks,

        Hi Pol,

        No, not just by changing the both the URL and canonical to something new and different. You'll need a redirect. Is there a reason you can't?
