does <base> in html affect seo?

[m1700]

hey, just wanna know  does <base> in head of website affect SEO? and if it's a yes, how?

[Dalerio-Consulting]

The purpose of the <base> tag is to set a base domain for linking to elements within it.

Basically, what the base tag does is if you set your <base href="moz.com"> and you link within the document to "/community/q", then the link will take the user to "moz.com/community/q".

There is no effect in SEO besides the fact that you will be creating backlinks to the base site for each element that is referred directly, without a URL.
