Can I remove certain parameters from the canonical URL?
Best practices is to remove and noindex such parameters. One of latest projects was Ecommerce shop with 5k products and over 220k indexed pages from categories. So you need to AVOID indexing such ?results=16 or ?order=asc or ?search=test and to have PURE and only pagination. Example: https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/product/epoxy-and-adhesives https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/product/epoxy-and-adhesives?page=2 https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/product/epoxy-and-adhesives?page=3 https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/product/epoxy-and-adhesives?page=4 are ONLY valid categories pages. If you have infinite scroll situation is described here: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2014/02/infinite-scroll-search-friendly?hl=en I hope that this will help you! Peter

Moz bot has trouble crawling Angular JS - I believe it's seeing the SPA (Single Page Application) before Universal. Anyone else have this issue? What is the fix?
Our crawler works by parsing the source code of your site, looking at HTML elements. If your site is primarily Javascript, then the data you get back with regards to the crawl report won't be completely accurate because of this. There's no real workaround that I can recommend for this one, since it is a technical limitation of our tools, but there are some good blog posts and discussions in the Q&A about this if you head over to our Help Hub. While the tools and data that rely on our crawl of your site may not return the best results because of that Javascript, your keyword rankings and link profile should work just fine. You might also want to check out a few tools that are compatible with Javascript, like Botify or Screaming Frog. https://www.onely.com/tools/wwjd/ is also a handy tool that makes it super easy to see where links are added or removed by javascript.
