Product category paging
-
Hi,
My product categories have 2-3 pages each.
I have paging implemented with rel=next and rel=prev.
from some reason Google GWT now reports the pages as having duplicate titles and description.
Should I be worried?
Should I set a different title like "blue category - page x" ?
Thanx,
Asaf

It causes a slight loss of link juice which could add up to a big problem if multiple pages have this problem. Try canonical linking with this code.
<---That is your basic skeleton
<------Page you want to hold the link juice power, usually the strongest page.
Hope this helps friend, Good luck on the quests!

Yes, you should add "Page x" to the title, meta description tag and H1 header tag to avoid duplicate errors.

What should I do about not found pages?
I took over a site that had been hacked. A bunch of pages were created that said domain.com/cms/viagra. The pages are gone but they still show in webmaster tools as not being found, which is what I want. However, should I do anything besides leaving them as 404?

-www.example.com/category-page/product/?p=2 The "p=2" example already has a rel=canonical in place, " Shouldn't the non-canonical pages be using the canonical attribute for the first page rather than the additional product pages? Thanks!0 -

Unavoidable duplicate page
Hi, I have an issue where I need to duplicate content on a new site that I am launching. Visitors to the site need to think that product x is part of two different services. e.g. domain.com/service1/product-x domain.com/service2/product-x Re-writing content for product x for each service section is not an option but possibly I could get over that only one product-x page is indexed by search engines. What's the best way to do this? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Stuart

Is it bad to have your pages as .php pages?
Hello everyone, Is it bad to have your website pages indexed as .php? For example, the contact page is site.com/contact.php and not /contact. Does this affect your SEO rankings in any way? Is it better to have your pages without the extension? Also, if I'm working with a news site and the urls are dynamic for every article (ie site.com/articleid=2323.) Should I change all of those dynamic urls to static? Thank You.
