    The Canonical Tag is indicated in a website’s source code. It hints at a standard resource – the canonical URL of websites with the same or almost the same content. If a canonical URL is indicated correctly, this resource is used for the indexation in search engines.

    An option for dealing with duplicate content is to utilize the rel=canonical tag. The rel=canonical tag passes the same amount of link juice (ranking power) as a 301 redirect, and often takes much less development time to implement. The tag is part of the HTML head of a web page.

    A canonical tag specifies the source URL (or original content page) of a given page to a search engine such as Google. Canonical tags are used to declare a single page as its own source or for duplicate pages to reference their source / originating page. Search Engines use the canonical tag to combat duplicate content issues and assign search engine ranking value for that content to the page designated as the source URL.

    Canonical is used to block the duplicate content issue. When both Web pages has same content, the duplicate content error will occur. So Canonical tag is used to solve the issue.

    The canonical tag is a new tag proposed by Google, designed to minimize crawl errors and the indexing of duplicate content in your website. Support for the tag has been adopted by most of the search engines, and it’s a good idea to add to your own website if you want to get your best search engine rankings.
