A little while ago,
Google
and other
search
engines
announced support for a
canonical link element that can help site owners with duplicate content issues.
I recreated my presentation from
SMX West
and you can watch it below:
You can
access the slides directly
or follow along here:
By the way, Ask just announced that they will support the canonical link element. Read all about
it in the
Ask.com blog entry.
Thanks again to Wysz for turning this
into a great video.
In fact, you might not have seen it, but we recently
created a webmaster videos channel on YouTube.
If you’re interested, you can
watch the new webmaster channel.
If you subscribe to that channel, you’ll always find out about new webmaster-related videos from
Google.
How we apply this
We archive Search Central announcements because client questions often trace back to a change that was announced years ago. Reading the original is faster than reconstructing it from second-hand summaries.
