I decided to get with Shopify because I just wante a simple cart that's easy to use, and not a huge learning curve.
I' want to silo my site properly and have a real nice structure.
However I'm having some issues.
Basically on shopify you create 'collections'.
So say I have 100 products with various brands and prices.
I can create a collection that only lists certain brands
ie www.example.com/collections/nike/products/
Or I can do it by price, so it would be
www.example.com/collections/high-price/products/
The problem is, if I click on one of the products, it will use the root URL depending what category the person is.
So it's creating duplicate content. ie
www.example.com/collections/nike/products/airjodans150/
www.example.com/collections/high-price/products/airjordans150/
They say adding
<link rel="canonical" href="{{ canonical_url }}" />
will solve the issue.
What that does I believe is just put the canonical url as
www.exmaple.com/products/airjordans150/
The good thing is no duplicate content, the bad thing is I can't really silo that and it makes a mess.
Is there anything I can do to properly silo the site witha good directory base and no duplicate content?
