Canonical points to another domain

Info severity, in the Canonicals tab

Why it matters

Cross-domain canonicals hand ranking signals to the other site. Fine for syndicated content, otherwise a mistake.

How to fix it

Confirm the cross-domain canonical is intentional.

How Crawlune finds it

Crawlune flags Canonical points to another domain automatically on every crawl and lists the affected URLs under the Canonicals tab, where you can filter, inspect each page and export the list to CSV. The free version crawls up to 550 URLs with every check enabled.
