Duplicate page wordpress title
-
Hi Moz Fan,
I have a few question that confuse by now, According to my website used wordpress for create a blog.
but now i have got duplicate page title from wordpress blog and very weird because these duplicate
page title look like these termLamborghini ASK Hanuman Club < title that was duplicate but they duplicate with the page like this
articles/13-วิธีง่ายๆ-เป็น-คนรวย-ได้/lamborghini-2/ , /articles/13-วิธีง่ายๆ-เป็น-คนรวย-ได้/lamborghini/ I don't know why Worpress create a new page that only have 1 pics, So I think that might be the effect
from Wordpress PHP Code Or wrong setting. Can anyone suggestion what should we do for these issues ?
because i have many duplicate page title from this case. -
There are two things to do to fix this:
-
When you upload a photo to a post, don't link it to the "attachment page' - this is a unique page just for the image, and is not needed. Here are your four options ---> http://screencast.com/t/KlUXTbes
-
'None' - makes the image not clickable
-
Media file - links to the image file itself, which is good if you want users to see the image bigger
-
Custom URL - you can link the image to anything you want, like an external link
-
Attachment Page - is the one you want to avoid
-
If you use the Yoast SEO plugin
-
Go to Advanced -> Permalinks
-
Check off "redirect attachment URLs to parent page' - this will redirect any images on their own URLs back to the page or post.

Haven't you just uploaded two variants of the same image/post twice?, and seeing as the default URL was taken Wordpress has just assigned the -2/ to the second upload ?
Maybe just redirect the second one in your htaccess file or just ensuring you have your rel="canonical" setup correctly will ensure googles doesn't penalize you.
Also just an extra note you could can add a sortcode which make any duplicate titles Unique like this... %%page%% or %%term_title%% more available here https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-page-variable-inserting-extra-sep
Hope this helps a little,
James

This may be the solution when you're also using the Yoast SEO plugin:

I am not sure that I understand, but I will try to guess a bit here:
1. You are publishing a post that contains the image of a Lamborghini but with no text content.
2. When you hit publish, it creates 2 posts with 2 almost identical URLS.
Are you having issues with WordPress making 2 posts at the same time?

@Rene Hansen : Thanks for answer, But my points why wordpress create a page that only for picture and not include
the content because when you see on the landing page you will only see the picture. Anyway when you delete the picture
name you will see the picture that already have in that content and if that possible because we publish 2 blog post in once
time how can we fix it. -
As far as I can see, you have made a new post with the same URL. That is why WordPress writes -2 at the end.
Is this happening automatically? Otherwise you could manually remove it.

Links / Top Pages by Page Authority ==> pages shouldnt be there
I checked my site links and top pages by page authority. What i have found i dont understand, because the first 5-10 pages did not exist!! Should know that we launched a new site and rebuilt the static pages so there are a lot of new pages, and of course we deleted some old ones. I refreshed the sitemap.xml (these pages are not in there) and upload it in GWT. Why those old pages appear under the links menu at top pages by page authority?? How can i get rid off them? thx, Endre

Should my back links go to home page or internal pages
Right now we rank on page 2 for many KWs, so should i now focus my attention on getting links to my home page to build domain authority or continue to direct links to the internal pages for specific KWs? I am about to write some articles for several good ranking sites and want to know whether to link my company name (same as domain name) or KW to the home page or use individual KWs to the internal pages - I am only allowed one link per article to my site. Thanks Ash

Better UX or more Dedicated Pages (and page views)?
Hi, I'm building a new e-commerce site and I'm conflicting about what to do in my category pages. If we take for example a computer store.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | BeytzNet
I have a category of laptops and inside there are filters by brand (Samsung, HP, etc.). I have two options - either having the brand choice open a new dedicated page -
i.e. Samsung-Laptops.aspx or simply do a JQuery filter which gives a better and faster user experience (immediate, animated and with no refresh). **Which should I use? (or does it depend on the keyword it might target)? **
Samsung laptops / dell laptops / hp laptops - are a great keyword on there own! By the way, splitting Laptops.aspx to many sub category physical pages might also help by providing the site with many actual pages dealing with laptops altogether.0 -
What constitutes a duplicate page?
Hi, I have a question about duplicate page content and wondered if someone is able to shed some light on what actually constitutes a "duplicate". We publish hundreds of bus timetable pages that have similar, but technically with unique urls and content. For example http://www.intercity.co.nz/travel-info/timetable/lookup/akl The template of the page is oblivious duplicated, but the vast majority of the content is unique to each page, with data being refreshed each night. Our crawl shows these as duplicate page errors, but is this just a generalisation because the urls are very similar? (only the last three characters change for each page - in this case /akl) Thanks in advance.

Can a home page penalty cause a drop in rankings for all pages?
All my main keywords have dropped out of the SERPS. Could it be that the home page (the strongest) page has been devalued and therefore 'link juice' that used to spread throughout the site is no longer doing so. Would this cause all other pages to drop? I just can't understand how all my pages have lost rankings. The site is still indexed so there's no problem there.

Can use of the id attribute to anchor t text down a page cause page duplication issues?
I am producing a long glossary of terms and want to make it easier to jump down to various terms. I am using the<a id="anchor-text" ="" attribute="" so="" am="" appending="" #anchor-text="" to="" a="" url="" reach="" the="" correct="" spot<="" p=""></a> <a id="anchor-text" ="" attribute="" so="" am="" appending="" #anchor-text="" to="" a="" url="" reach="" the="" correct="" spot<="" p="">Does anyone know whether Google will pick this up as separate duplicate pages?</a> <a id="anchor-text" ="" attribute="" so="" am="" appending="" #anchor-text="" to="" a="" url="" reach="" the="" correct="" spot<="" p="">If so any ideas on what I can do? Apart from not do it to start with? I am thinking 301s won't work as I want the URL to work. And rel=canonical won't work as there is no actual page code to add it to. Many thanks for your help Wendy</a>

How do you transition a keyword rank from a home page to a sub-page on the site?
We're currently ranking #1 for a valuable keyword, but the result on the SERP is our home page. We're creating a new product page focused on this keyword to provide a better user experience and create more relevant content. What is the best way to make a smooth transition to make the product page rank #1 for the keyword instead of the home page?
