Pagination

Checks that paginated pages have proper canonicals


Rule ID	`crawl/pagination`
Category	Crawlability
Scope	Per-page
Severity	info
Weight	4/10

Solution

Paginated pages should NOT all canonicalize to page 1. Each page should have a self-referencing canonical. Use rel=‘next’ and rel=‘prev’ links to indicate pagination sequence (though Google no longer uses these for indexing, they help users). Consider view-all pages or infinite scroll as alternatives. Ensure each paginated page has unique, valuable content.
