Description

Without canonical URLs, search engines may index duplicate content from different URL variations (with/without trailing slashes, different case, etc.). This dilutes page authority and can hurt rankings.

SEO enhancement requested in issue #209. Canonical tags are essential for any professional website to ensure proper search engine indexing.

This PR adds to the head.html partial:

  • Canonical URL link tags pointing to the canonical permalink
  • Meta description with fallback to summary/site description
  • Meta keywords support (for engines that still use them)
  • Author meta tag for bylines

How will this change help?

  • Consolidate link equity to preferred URLs
  • Prevent duplicate content issues
  • Provide explicit metadata for search engines
  • Improve keyword targeting with proper description and keywords meta
