Frequently asked questions
- Is the canonical tag generator free?
- Yes — free with no signup.
- What does canonical do?
- It tells search engines which URL is the master version when multiple URLs serve the same content (e.g. /page vs /page?utm=).
- Should it be self-referencing?
- Yes — it's best practice for every indexable page to point its canonical at itself.
- Is anything uploaded?
- No — every tag is generated in your browser.
- Will Google always honor canonical?
- Canonical is a hint, not a directive. Google may still index the duplicate if it has stronger signals (more inbound links, etc.).
