To remove the trailing slash from the canonical URL of your Webflow homepage, you'll need to follow these steps:
- Go to your Webflow project and select the homepage in the Designer view.
- Click on the "Settings" tab located in the top-right corner of the page.
- In the "SEO Settings" section, you will find the "Canonical Page" field.
- By default, the value in the "Canonical Page" field is set to the page's URL with a trailing slash.
- To remove the trailing slash, simply remove it from the URL in the "Canonical Page" field.
- After removing the trailing slash, click outside the field to save the changes.
By following these steps, you have successfully removed the trailing slash from the canonical URL of your Webflow homepage. It's worth noting that removing the trailing slash may impact your website's SEO if search engines have already indexed your pages with a trailing slash. Make sure to set up proper redirection from the old URL to the new one to avoid any negative impact on your website's performance.
