Non-canonical URLs are pages that are either a canonical duplicate of another URL or a duplicate piece of content. That means these URLs are being linked to from pages on your site. It also means they are accessible, which is only possible if they are not handled with redirects properly.

Most of the Indian members here in webhelpforums site are only duplicating one post which means they are only spamming the thread with the same message. I hope that the admin will get notice it immediately.

A canonical URL refers to an HTML link element, with the attribute of rel="canonical" (also known as a canonical tag), found in the <head> element of your client's web page. It specifies to search engines their preferred URL. That means the canonical URL element informs Google and other search engines to crawl a website, and what URL to index that specific page's content under.

A canonical tag (rel="canonical") is a snippet of HTML code that defines the main version for duplicate, near-duplicate and similar pages. In other words, if you have the same or similar content available under different URLs, you can use canonical tags to specify which version is the main one and thus, should be indexed.

Non-canonical URLs are pages that are both a canonical reproduction of every other URL or a replica piece of content. ... that means these URLs are being connected to from pages in your web site. It also means they're reachable, which is handiest possible if they're now not treated with redirects nicely.

HTTP/HTTPS and WWW/non-WWW canonical troubles may be fixed by means of enforcing a sitewide 301 redirect to an appropriate version of your URL. There are several approaches to installation a sitewide redirect. The only, least volatile method is to set up the redirect via your internet site's host.

 It happens when a page's URL doesn't match a canonical URL. As a result, the robots are indexing pages that have different addresses from their canonical versions. To avoid these problems, one should always put a tag on a preferred URL

Non-canonical URLs are that, URLs that have no canonical tag. And there are so many reasons for it. such as, 1. The URL of a website may be a dynamic URL.
2. The website has duplicate content.
3. When the website has not given its canonical tag.

A non-canonical URL is a URL that points to the same content as another URL, but is not considered the preferred or "canonical" version of that content. The concept of a canonical URL is used to help prevent duplicate content issues and to consolidate link equity for a single piece of content. The non-canonical version of the URL is often used to track the origin of the user and for tracking purposes, but it's not used by search engines to index the content.

There are a few common ways that non-canonical URLs can be created, such as through the use of URL parameters (https://www.360marketing.co.in/blog/), session IDs, or by including multiple URLs that point to the same content. To fix this issue, webmasters can use rel=canonical link elements in the head of the HTML of the duplicate pages, or redirect the non-canonical URLs to the preferred version using 301 redirects.

It's important to identify and fix non-canonical URLs as they can cause confusion to the search engines and divide the link equity among multiple URLs, which can lead to a poor user experience and a drop in search engine rankings.

A non-canonical URL is a URL that does not specify the preferred or "canonical" version of a webpage. This can happen when a webpage is accessible through multiple URLs. Non-canonical URLs can cause issues with search engine optimization (SEO) and may lead to duplicate content on a website. To fix this, webmasters can use the rel="canonical" link element to specify the preferred version of a webpage.
