Can rel="canonical" index my hostname and not my IP address?

    Hi

    Will the new canonical tag help with issues where you by accident (stupid editors linking to wrong addresses) have indexed sites by the IP address rather than hostname?

    Thanks

    No, no.

    The IP can change, but not the domain.

    Also i don't think this canonical attribute is really needed.

    Does Google even index by IP address?
