Hello @buffalorocks05

I am 90% sure our platform already does this for you! We also provide the 301 redirect for any page you feel is not canonical.  You can find this in the settings in the blue bar of your editor. Then in SEO in the left menu. Scroll to the bottom and you can add any 301 redirects there.

This is not actually the case.

Moz is reporting zero canonical tags and is reading a TON of duplicates in the blog area of Weebly sites. This is because the blog layout is the same for all category, archive, and historical pages. Not only that, but it's reading these as having duplicate page titles as well, because these adapt the page title from the blog layout.

The duplicate page titles and descriptions are also registering in Moz for every main pages of the website because Weebly tags a .html on the end of URL's (e.g. pageone.com/p1 vs pageone.com/p1.html). This is the most obvious place where canonical tags would be helpful. Same thing is happening on the homepage (e.g. pageone.com vs pageone.com/index.html).

All of this tells me that there are no canonical tags created by Weebly on the fly, so the question still remains, how do we do it in Weebly without messing things up?

let s say I have 3 pages, for each product one page. Page A for product a and Page B for product b .

Now product a replaces similar product c (Page  C), so I would like to redirect Page A ( with good google rank ) to Page  C

how can I do that  without deleting Page A ?

regards M
