[Comment] Canonical URL's for ASP.NET MVC
URL Canonicalization seems to be quite new topic to me, being a newbie. Although, I have read some guides, but still i have one confusion, Do I need to add URL Canonical Tag in every page of my site?

It's just a filter, so you can if you want to. The main idea of it though is to put it at the root and then use the NoTrailingSlashAttribute or NoLowercaseQueryStringAttribute to tweak how it works when you have an exception to the rule.
Fantastic post - great that you shown options in mvc5 and mvc6
Hi Rehan, I follow many of your post and work, great job man! thanks for helping the community!
Curious to know if you have something to automate things like these:
[Route("TermsOfUse", Name= "TermsOfUse")]
[Route("Home/TermsOfUse", Name = "HomeTermsOfUse")]
public ActionResult TermsOfUse()
{
if (Request.GetDisplayUrl().Contains("/Home"))
return RedirectToRoutePermanent("TermsOfUse");
return View();
}
[Route("Privacy", Name= "Privacy")]
[Route("Home/Privacy", Name= "HomePrivacy")]
public ActionResult Privacy()
{
if (Request.GetDisplayUrl().Contains("/Home"))
return RedirectToRoutePermanent("Privacy");
return View();
}

Looks like you want to the response Rewrite middleware.

Just got here back because of inbound links report. First, thank you for promoting our website on your blog! Second, I must ask, aren't you afraid it will cause spam? Lastly, (since we had massive spam bots recently) why aren't you using recpatcha? We got dozens of Viagra spam messages!

You usually do this using your host name providers services.
Any idea on how to add this to Asp.net Core 1.1.0? Best I can figure is it needs to be added in the services.AddMvc options set, but how do I add the routes items options? (Doesn't seem routetable.routes is valid)
Thanks!

The ASP.NET Core Boilerplate project template uses it. If you create a project from the template, you can see how to use it.
Thanks Rehan,
it's a great article from urlhelper to filters, just some customization following my needs and it works perfect. I tested my site with different SEO plugins and result is awesome.

Google and Bing both have web pages where you can enter the URL to your sitemap.
Great post! A change I would recommend is to ignore ChildAction, otherwise, if a parent has one of the Ignore attributes (such as NoLowercaseQueryStringAttribute), the ChildAction might try to redirect, which results in a page error.
Around line 83, insert this:
if (filterContext.IsChildAction) {
filterContext.Controller.ViewBag.CanonicalUrl = filterContext.ParentActionViewContext.Controller.ViewBag.CanonicalUrl;
return;
}

Yes, I actually got a PR in the ASP.NET Core Boilerplate Framework project that does just this. I just hadn't updated the blog post.
Hi, thanks for the great post. So, if I do all the redirects, then I don't need to add any canonical links to my web pages? The reason ask is that I have heard that its best practice to always add canonical URL to our pages (though I have not really seen an official document to back this up, hence the question)
