Rel canonical issues on wordpress posts

[acs111]

Our site has 500 rel canonical issues.

This is the way i understand the issues.

All our blog posts automatically include a rel=canonical to themselves.
eg a blog about content marketing has:

Should this tag point to one of the main pages instead so the link juice is sent back to our home page?

Nopes. The way it sounds like it's setup correctly. The message you are seeing from SEOMoz is more of a warning then an issue. I would ignore it.

It's always tough to tell without seeing the site, but I agree with Nakul that you should be ok - we have a "notice" level message that sometimes gets overzealous about canonical tags. It's really just a heads up - not an error, per se. We're actually re-evaluating whether that's a good way to handle the situation.
