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

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

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

Blog Frequency
Hi, We have a new blog, we write 4 blogs per month and have been posting all 4 in one go at the same time per month. Would it be more beneficial to post the blogs 1 per week or does it not matter? Also, is 4 blog 250 word blogs per month enough or should we be doing more? Thanks Andrew

Correction Duplicate Page Title Problems for a Blog
EDITED: To just focus on the issue at hand. I am trying to figure out the SEO rules instead of just working on the content. Please bear with me. I am adept technically. I just do not know the rules of the SEO process or even some of the termology. So I’m trying to attack problems one at time. Today’s problem – **Duplicate Page Titles ** We evidently have thousands of Duplicate Page Titles. We are using Joomla 2.5 & Easyblog. Our sitemap is automated from XML Sitemap Easyblog takes the title of the sites and uses it for a name of the summary pages. We post 5 blog items per page and all the names are the same. http://www.OursiteName.com/?start=5 Page Title = Site Name http://www.OursiteName.com/?start=10 Page Title = Site Name A similar thing happens on the sorting by Author or Category etc etc. Basically non-duplicate pages are looking like duplicates. What is the best practice / approach? Using the Robot.txt or XML Sitemap to tell Google not to crawl these pages? Writing a script or edit the Easyblog code to edit the 2000 duplicate Page Titles? Other thoughts?

Duplicate Pages Different Content
Will duplicate pages different content hurt rankings/seo E-commerce Site is plugin style with WYSIWYG editor allowing for full customization, all pages are setup with basic default content. Ive created custom pages with content/keywords to begin seo on them I have two pages www.domain.com/sports/hockey and www.domain.com/nhl-tickets The first url is default, with a single H1tag, + Default Meta+Title tags, the second is the content rich page, and structured properly, both of which show up on the site, should I block the first url from displaying at all? The reason I am asking is because ive also setup breadcrumb links, which makes all of these category url's accessible on the site, I cannot edit breadcrumb links, we can either have them there or remove them. Thank you Very Much!!
