Canonical URL Plugin for WordPress Content Management System

by Paddu on July 5th, 2010

If you are using WordPress as a Content Management platform for your Lead Generation websites and blogs, a simple plugin can solve duplicate content issues with the search engines. Obviously, SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is great way to bring in leads and attract traffic to your content websites. URLs pointing to duplicate content is a big no-no for SEO.

For more about duplicate URLs and use of canonical links, see the following video by Google’s Matt Cutts.

You can get the Canonical URL Plugin for WordPress from Yoast.com. Note that the canonical link concept explained above can be used in any of the websites (not just WordPress sites). If your sites are based on WordPress, then this plugin will automate the process.
