Canonical file names for SEO

I don't understand all I know about canonical file names—so please correct me if I'm wrong. I originally thought canonical file names referred to only www vs. non-www. But now I think it also includes file names that have been changed/assigned for SEO reasons or other reasons. For example - changing all file names to end in .html vs. .php or .asp.


Both Drupal and Wordpress offer the option of changing file names to whatever you want them to be. You can have all of your files end in .html etc.

My questions: Is there any preferred file extension for enhancing SEO? Are there any other considerations, other than extension, to consider in canonical names? Maybe I should be referring to them as canonical URLs.

Tx for your help.

There is no such thing as a "cononical file name"
