I have make canonical tag live after discussion over here. But, I have confusion regarding Relative & Absolute URLs.

I am using absolute URLs in canonical tag but, website have relative URLs.

So, Does it create any issue or stop down get benefit of canonical tag?

I would use no índex for the https version of the site, or block it from robots.txt, if i don't want it to be indexed.

I believe you're messing things, honestly. 1st > choose a canonical version for your site (www. or not). Sometimes absolute urls can give problems for https version of a site. 2nd > consider if your really want to index the htpps version... If not, put no index or block it via robots.txt. If yes use as canonical tag the http URL of the https page.

So, What about canonical tag. I am too confuse with it. What is ultimate conclusion. Because, I have make it live one website after getting suggestion.

Any eCommerce experience which will help me to understand more. What is best solution in my case. My goal is remove duplication in website and improve crawling rate.

[CommercePundit]

You are right. Because, I have solid confusion after reading article about duplication. I checked my website and found HTTPS and HTTP pages and raising questions in that direction.

Yep

Our solution to this, was to make sure we had a canonical for each and every page pointing to the http:// version.

Secondly https:// was only made available after logging in.
