See your site the way search engines do
List your pages below. This flags pairs whose titles and descriptions overlap heavily enough that they might be competing against each other in search results instead of ranking together.
Keyword cannibalization happens when several pages on the same website target the same search and compete with each other. Instead of one strong page, search engines see two or three similar ones and may rotate between them, showing none of them as high as a single focused page could rank.
It often creeps in over time: a blog writes about a topic twice a few years apart, a store has category pages and blog posts with nearly identical titles, or location pages repeat the same wording. The pages look different to the site owner but read almost the same to a search engine.
Comparing page titles and meta descriptions for overlapping keywords is a quick way to find candidates. Search Console data then confirms whether two pages really swap places for the same queries.
When several of your pages target the same query, search engines must choose between them — often ranking none of them well. Spotting overlapping titles and descriptions is the first step to consolidating them into one stronger page.

A flagged pair is a candidate, not a verdict. Similar pages are fine when they serve different intents — for example a buying guide and a product page. Check whether both pages appear for the same queries in Search Console.
When they truly compete, merge them into the stronger page and redirect the other, re-target one page at a different search, or make the difference in intent clear in titles and content.
An online shoe store in Canada had a category page titled "Women's Running Shoes" and a blog post titled "Best Women's Running Shoes". Neither ranked well, and Search Console showed them swapping places.
The Keyword Cannibalization Checker flagged the pair as heavily overlapping. The store kept the category page for shopping searches and re-targeted the blog post at a different question — "how to choose running shoes for flat feet" — with a link to the category page. Both pages then settled into stable positions for their own searches.
No. It is a problem only when the pages serve the same intent for the same query.
Usually consolidating into one comprehensive page and redirecting the others to it.
No — the comparison runs in your browser.
In Search Console, filter by the query and check the Pages tab. If two URLs swap places for the same query, they are competing.
Usually merge the weaker page into the stronger one and add a 301 redirect, rather than deleting it.
