1. In the issue of canonicalization,
What if there’s a cross domain duplicate of content, involving a website that I’m not in control of. In fact I’m not even aware of it.
Let’s take for instance, another website copied my content and published an exact copy of it, and hence there’s no canonicalization. So the ranking power of both sites would be diffused?
How can this be resolved?
Hi @JEzechukwuma2,
In this scenario a canonicalization tag won’t be helpful for you, as you expressed. Here’s some information on reporting stolen content: Report stolen content.
You can report stolen content through your Google Search console.
Good luck and sorry you have to deal with this!
