    Great post Joe! Canonical issues are pretty big in the general population and most don’t know what to do or even what its for.

    Maybe you should tap SearchMarketingStandard on the shoulder and let them know about this post…since they seem to have some issues too. ;)

    Thanks Joe, it was interesting to read.

  3. What is the best way to use 301s in windows hosting? .htaccess or anything else!

  4. SEOsean says:

    I think 301 redirects are an essential tool for SEO. Without it a lot of hard work can be lost just because you named the page wrong or some other silly move, like you want to make the site run on PHP now but it was original created only in HTML.

    Thanks for the post!
