How do I add canonical to a blog post that points to homepage?

Site URL: https://www.paymywedding.com

Hi,

I just found out that our site https://www.paymywedding.com is ranking a blog post for our desired keyword rather than homepage. We want to add canonical to that blog page so that Google will rank homepage instead of blog page. But I can't seem to find how to add it. Can anyone help me how to do this?

As far as I know, Squarespace doesn't provide a way to manually add canonical tags to individual blog posts.

In this instance, I'm not sure I'd recommend doing that anyway — if one of your blog posts is ranking well for a search query that's important for your business, I'd take advantage of that existing ranking and focus on trying to optimize the user experience for users that land on that blog post. Look for opportunities to place additional calls to action on that post to encourage more users to convert.
