If anybody who reads this can offer some advice I would be most grateful.
Added some social media buttons to a site which required me to also add a rel="canonical" link to make things work. My SEO browser add-on is telling me that this is going to be an indexing problem. As the link is looping back to the same page is it just that the add-on is just seeing the link as a problem without knowing it purpose and all my work wont drop out of Google. Have used canonical only once before to solve a double index problem and am aware it can be a nightmare if it goes wrong.
Cheers
