Alternate page with proper canonical tag

    For the past while I am getting the following error reports from Google Search Console:
    “New reason preventing your pages from being indexed. Search Console has identified that some pages on your site are not being indexed due to the following new reason:
    Alternate page with proper canonical tag”

    When I go to search console it shows these four pages:

    https://ozols.com/?d9ymskf842c5776666

    https://ozols.com/?80toricof8423d394fd

    https://ozols.com/?06sumaf842c88131f34

    https://ozols.com/?9fsumaf842a4088eea3

    I cannot figure out how these were created, or how to delete them. My hosting platform says they don’t exist as a page that can be deleted, my theme developer says that the theme does not create this. I used to use Yoast, but deactivated it in hopes that this would go away.

    It does seem like these “phantom pages” are interfering with my site being properly indexed. HOw can I resolve this issue?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello @2eiiv5

    Thanks for reaching out about your page indexing report. According to Google’s documentation, Alternate page with proper canonical tag means the page is marked as an?alternate?of another page (that is, an AMP page with a desktop canonical, or a mobile version of a desktop?canonical, or the desktop version of a mobile canonical). This page correctly points to the canonical page, which is indexed, so there is nothing you need to do. Alternate language pages are not detected by the Search Console.

    If you require further assistance, please post a question here.
