A canonical link element is an HTML element that helps webmasters prevent duplicate content issues in search engine optimization by specifying the "canonical" or "preferred" version of a web page.

Canonical URLs relate to the concept of selecting the best URL for the web pages that the visitors want to see. Also, known as canonical tags, these URLs help in content syndication when multiple versions of a same page become available over the Internet. Thus, it is used to resolve issues related to content duplication.

For example, most people would consider these the same urls:

www.example.com
example.com/
www.example.com/index.html
example.com/home.asp

But technically all of these urls are different.

A canonical URL refers to an HTML link element, with the attribute of rel="canonical" , found in the <head> element of your webpage.

A Canonical Error arises when 301 redirections are not properly in right place. It means single page URL can open multiple types in the search engine. It breaks the guidelines of Google Webmaster, it makes another copy of your website/page generate content duplicate issues.
Canonical Tag is an effective way of telling search engines that a specific URL represents the master copy of a page. Canonical Tag used to fetch unique or relevant website URL in duplicate pages. We can resolve issues by place canonical URL in the header section of each page that generate issues of canonical.
