May question is - can the Canonical Tag be placed anywhere with the "head"? or does it need to be placed before or after a certain line? Thanks for your help - sorry about the multiple post.

May question is – can the Canonical Tag be placed anywhere with the “head”?

or does it need to be placed before or after a certain line?

Thanks for your help – sorry about the multiple post.

The canonical issue is even worse with volusion than you've stated above as there are even more dupe pages - I have a client who has /default.asp and /Default.asp with PR1 and PR3 assigned to these two different URLs Was starting to wonder whether volusion would be able to handle the canonical tags. Fantastic Erik – thanks for this!

Then I went to shopvsc.com and I get this error across the top of the page: NOTE: You have visited an incorrect URL that is not exaclty "http://www.shopvsc.com/". For example if you go to your site without the "www." that would bring you to this message. If it's been at least 12-24 hours since you changed your DNS, you can switch your site over from the IP Address, to the domain name by going in your admin area to "Store Settings > Company". Please note you are seeing this message only because you are currently logged in as an administrator. Your customers would not see this. Now I attempted to go to just shopvsc.com after removing the code and it still does that. Should I be worried? Thanks, Erik,
