Time for action - choosing your canonical URL

Here is how to specify your canonical URL and tell PrestaShop to use it.

1. 1. Click on the Modules tab, and under the Tools category, enable the Canonical URL module.

2. 2. Now scroll back down to it and click on Configure.

3. 3. Here you can enter the canonical URL for your shop. I suggest www.yoursite.com because it is most widely recognized, but you could also put yoursite.com. Obviously, you type your actual domain name and extension instead of yoursite.com.

4. 4. Click on Save and you're done.

PrestaShop will now make sure that your chosen canonical URL is used exclusively. This, as we discussed, has great potential benefits for the search engine ranking of your site. Now let's take a look at adding some great articles to your PrestaShop.
