+## SEO components
+
+### CanonicalURL
+
+The `CanonicalURL` component ensures search engines know the authoritative URL
+for a page, even though Vercel already handles trailing slash redirects. This is
+important for SEO consistency.
+
+#### When to use CanonicalURL
+
+Use this component on:
+
+- **Any `index.mdx` file**: These files serve content at their parent path
+  (e.g., `/api/index.mdx`)
+- **Files matching parent directory names**: When a file shares its parent
+  directory's name (e.g., `docs/kratos/organizations/organizations.mdx`)
+
+Common examples include:
+
+- Index Path (`/api/index.mdx`, `/elements/index.mdx`, `/identities/index.mdx`)
+- Matching parent directory names
+  (`docs/kratos/organizations/organizations.mdx`,
+  `docs/self-hosted/oel/monitoring/monitoring.mdx`)
+
+#### How to use CanonicalURL
+
+Add the component at the beginning of your MDX file after the front matter:
+
+```mdx
+---
+id: your-page-id
+title: Your Page Title
+---
+
+import CanonicalURL from "@site/src/components/CanonicalUrl"
+
+<CanonicalURL path="your/canonical/path" />
+
+Your content here...
+```
+
+The component automatically:
+
+- Generates the full canonical URL using the site's base URL
+- Removes trailing slashes to ensure URL consistency
+- Adds the appropriate `<link rel="canonical">` tag to the page's HTML head
+
+This ensures search engines understand which version of the URL should be
+indexed and helps consolidate page authority for better SEO performance.
+
+#### How to verify CanonicalURL is working
+
+1. Open the page in your browser
+2. Right-click and select "View Page Source" (not "Inspect")
+3. Search for `<link rel="canonical"` in the HTML
+4. Confirm the canonical URL exists and points to the correct path without
+   trailing slash
+
+Example:
+
+```html
+<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/organizations" />
+```
+
+If you see a trailing slash in the canonical URL or if there's no canonical tag
+at all, the component may not be properly implemented.
