How to Detect if Google Ignores Your Canonicals Using Google Search Console Data

To ensure Google isn't serving canonical child URLs, crawl your site and export the data to Google Sheets. Export the last 16 months of search console data and run 'Search Analytics for Sheets'. Find your URL, request data, and add 'GSC Clicks' and 'GSC Impressions' to your canonicalised URL sheet. Use VLOOKUP to match data and filter URLs with GSC data. These URLs need attention to prevent cannibalisation and ensure the canonical parent is the lead URL. Repeat as needed.
