How to handle this specific duplicate title issue
-
Part of my website is a directory of companies. Some of the companies have mane locations in the same city.
For these listings titles and url's are like this:
1. Company ABC - Miami, FL
http://www.website.com/florida/miami/company-abc-10001
2. Company ABC - Miami, FL
http://www.website.com/florida/miami/company-abc-10002
What is the best way to fix this problem?
Thank you

Casey, thanks for the answer and this is very good idea....
but
all listings already have full street address and phone number.
So since company name is similar, it's still appears as duplicate content. Apparently 2 extra lines of address and phone do not do the work.

Perhaps you can add more information on the companies location? You could include the Street of the location, side of town (north, east, west, south), Phone Number of the location. If each location has a specific branch name, include that also.

Duplicate Title Tags How harmful is it?
I recently updated a site to use a new WordPress theme. This theme in conjunction with Yoast SEO plugin is causing duplicate Title tags. The tags have the same title in them. I discovered this when adding new keywords and pages to the page optimizer in moz. I have since turned off moz to stop the duplicate title tag issue however I am wondering if tuning off yoast is worse then the duplicate title tags. Any clarification on the duplicate page title issue and its consequences would be greatly appreciated.

Duplicate Page Content and Titles from Weebly Blog
Anyone familiar with Weebly that can offer some suggestions? I ran a crawl diagnostics on my site and have some high priority issues that appear to stem from Weebly Blog posts. There are several of them and it appears that the post is being counted as "page content" on the main blog feed and then again when it is tagged to a category. I hope this makes sense, I am new to SEO and this is really confusing. Thanks!
