Canonical Tag

Tells Google which version of a duplicate page is the original.

A canonical tag (`<link rel='canonical' href='...'>`) tells search engines which URL is the authoritative version when the same content is reachable at multiple URLs (e.g. with tracking parameters, sort orders). Prevents duplicate content penalties.
