The homepage shows among other things the newest blog posts and the most booked courses (domain.tld/). For keyword optimization, I create two extra web pages, one for a listing of all blog posts (domain.tld/news) and one for all courses (domain.tld/courses).

Hence the homepage contains duplicate content of different parts of the website but also unique content. I want to emphasize the listing of the more specific pages in search results.


Is it recommended to add <link rel="canonical" href="https://domain.tld/news/"> and <link rel="canonical" href="https://domain.tld/courses/"> inside <head> on the hompage (domain.tld/)?
Is it reasonable to declare canonical URLs for sections on a single page, instead of listing all canonicals inside <head>? Something like this:




<section>
<h2>News</h2>
...
<link rel="canonical" href="https://domain.tld/news/">
</section>
<section>
<h2>Courses</h2>
...
<link rel="canonical" href="https://domain.tld/courses/">
</section>




Pagination, ordering, and categorization of blog posts and courses have not to be considered in this question.
