Address | Full URL (https://example.com/products?id=12 ) | Base reference |
URL | Raw URL (decoded or encoded format) | URL cleanliness check |
Path Type | Static ya dynamic URL | SEO friendly URL detection |
Protocol | HTTP ya HTTPS | Secure site check |
Subdomain | www ya blog.example.com | Subdomain audit |
Root | Base domain (example.com ) | Canonical version check |
Query String | URL me jo parameters hai (?id=12 ) | Duplicate URL risk |

๐ Practical Examples & Problems:
1. Messy URLs with Parameters
URL: https://example.com/product?id=12&utm_source=facebook
❌ SEO Issue: Same product page multiple URLs se open ho raha hai → duplicate content risk
✅ Solution: Use canonical tag OR parameter handling in Google Search Console.
2. Capital Letters in URLs
URL: https://example.com/Products
vs https://example.com/products
❌ SEO Issue: Google dono ko alag maan sakta hai → duplication
✅ Solution: Use lowercase URLs always + canonical
3. Inconsistent Trailing Slashes
URL: https://example.com/blog/
vs https://example.com/blog
