Hi, In my opinion, IP Canonicalization is mandatory for getting better result in SEO. Please share your views. Thanks Sabya
As SEO dislikes duplicated content and without canonical URL's your website would be viewed as duplicate content (website.com different from www.website.com). So yes I would also agree.
IP canonicalization is another critical step to good website SEO. It happens when your site’s IP address (which appears as a string of numbers) doesn’t redirect to its traditional URL.
