Wordpress Blog Pages, Duplicate Title Tag
-
Anyone have any experience in fixing the duplicate Title tag on a Wordpress blog multiple pages
Basically the title tag remains the same on the pages
/Blog/
/Blog/Page/2/
/Blog/Page/3/
My good friend Yoast Plugin doesn't seem to of resolved this (Unless i have missed something?)
I don't really see this to be effecting anything and wouldn't of through it would either, but it would be nice to not see the notification within Moz site crawls and campaigns etc, its more of a cosmetic problem
Any solutions ?
Thanks
James

It's in the Yoast settings Thomas. Titles & Meta's >> Taxonomies
I'm astounded I had never thought of this as the solution to my own issue. Thanks to everyone above.

I am having this same problem, and I don't understand the instructions here for how to fix it.
If I go to edit category and add the code to the title, it just adds the code (character for character) to the url and still gives me /page/2 after. I still have a duplicate title.
If I go to Yoast SEO settings - titles and metas and go over to the archive tab, there is nothing for category archive. Only author and date.
Where do I put this code?

Thanks,
Looks useful,

Oh and i have always used Yoast,
Why would All in one resolve this ?
Can they be used in conjunction ? i assume not i could see that causing problems ?
-
Thanks,
Well the blog is setup sort of like an archive of past posts and news,
I have disabled tags index (dont use them anyway), date archive is disabled and only use Categories but only for usability for readers and these category indexes are set to no index anyway to avoid duplication,
So the articles index of pages 2 and upwards are all unique as everything else is no index,
I don't want to have all of my articles indexed listed onto page 1 as that wouldn't be good for my users,
So really i just need to reword the title tags of pages 2 and upwards to make them unique

References for Healthcare Blog Content?
Hey everyone, We have a couple B2C medical/healthcare clients we produce content for and I was wondering what the industry stance is when it comes to giving references at the end of a blog, assuming there were no statistics or direct quotes used in the content. A lot of our content is written via research on a specific condition/treatment and doesn't really dive deep into specific medical nuances. Things like risks, recovery timelines, questions to ask, etc. are written about mostly. Still, should we be providing general references at the end of blogs to sites like WebMD, Medscape, etc. Thanks for any input!

Page Break
Hey guys, A client has asked us to install a page break function on their Wordpress site in the hope of increasing page count. It's a very common practice but have never used it as part of a strategy. Any thoughts, pros or cons?

How many words per page?
I know this has been answered before, but I don't think it has been in about a year (and we all know how quickly the SEO landscape can change). We're having a little debate on it right now and I'd be curious to get some feedback from the community. What is the minimum number of words you would use on a page? Does it matter to you if it's a second tier (website.com/x) or third tier (website.com/x/y) page? It's always a tough sell on design between trying to keep it clean and trying to provide a lot of useful information. I'd be curious what your thoughts are. Thanks! -Adam

Locating Guest Blogging Niches
Hey Folks, Does anybody have advice on tools I could use to locate blogs on specific topics? My plan is to approach the webmasters and offer guest blogging services. I know I could just do a google search for something like "KEYWORD blogs" but I thought I'd see if there is anything more sophisticated out there. Thanks, Rich

Should I Have No Index, No Follow On Blog Category & Tag Pages?
At some point in the past I read or was told that No Index, No Follow tags on category and tag pages were a good thing on a standard WordPress blog in order to prevent duplicate content issues. Is this still true or was it ever true?
