o URL Canonicalization - Should You Do It?

This week I am working on the tricky issue
of url canonicalization. Big name for something
that's really simple - some search engines read
the different versions of your domain's url
as different - www.yoursite.com and yoursite.com
can have different number of links pointing to them.

They may consider the www and non-www versions
as two different sites, although obviously it's
your "one" site with the same content.

Canonicalization was a big topic a few years back,
which had concerned webmasters worried they were dividing
or diluting their Google PageRank. Should you still use
it or not? Read my SiteProNews blog post to find out...

o Google Is Everything Or Is It?

Bill Platt and his site thephantomwriters.com is one
of my secret weapons for getting high rankings. His
article distribution system is excellent - I have
known Bill for years and have been using his system
for just as long.

But I also admire Bill for his writing skills - he's
one of the best I have come across. Just look at that
title above for a second and think about the drawing
power it has!

I couldn't resist going to the article and reading
it. It you're just as curious - you can read it
below. You won't be disappointed in the information
you'll find:
