    My site URL system creates multiple URL versions of the same page. So I’m getting this error in the search console – Alternate page with proper canonical tag. Why it is creating multiple pages? Please help me to resolve this issue.

  • Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us and sorry for the inconvenience caused.

    Since the URLs are getting generated and discovered by Google, they are showing the error and it is fine since those URLs shouldn’t be indexed. To figure out how Google is discovering those URLs, you should use the URL inspection tool of your GSC account to check the URLs and figure out the referring page and remove the URLs if they are present.

    Hope that helps. Let us know if you need any other assistance.

    But why are these URLs getting generated?

    Hello,

    The URLs are for paginated posts on your website. Usually Rank Math sets the first page to the canonical in such cases.

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.
