Frequently asked questions
What exactly does "cleaning" the URL do?
It trims whitespace, removes a trailing slash if present, and strips everything from the first ? or # onward — so query parameters and fragment identifiers are cut automatically, since a canonical URL shouldn't include tracking params or anchors.
Should I use the link tag or the meta http-equiv version?
Use the <link rel="canonical"> tag — it's the standard, universally-recognized method search engines look for. The http-equiv version is included as a fallback but isn't as widely supported.
Does it remove more than one trailing slash?
No — only a single trailing slash is stripped, so a URL ending in multiple slashes would still have one left over in the cleaned output.
