What Canonical Checker reports
Canonical Checker returns page url, canonical host and self reference for the input you paste, so you can see the specific signal you came for without running a full site crawl first.
Free SEO Tool
Confirm canonical URLs point search engines to the right version.
Compare a page URL with its canonical target to catch relative URLs, cross-host targets, and self-reference mistakes.

Add the page or business context you want to review, understand the result in plain language, and use the recommendations to improve your next SEO action.
Reading the page url output
The page url result is the one to act on first, with canonical host shown beside it so a fix can be judged in context rather than from a single score.
Turning the check into a change
Once self reference looks right, the same page, keyword, or crawl file can move into a full audit and a tracked content workflow instead of staying a one-off check.
Workflow
Start with a quick check, then go deeper when needed.
Inspect the page, understand the result, and continue into an audit or content workflow when you are ready to act.
