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

Blog.site.com vs site.com/blog
Which is better for SEO: blog.site.com or site.com/blog. In other words, is it better to have the blog running in a subdomain or as a director within the main site? Right now we are running as a subdomain, but want to be sure Google isn't considering that a separate site. The blog shows up separately on Google Analytics, which makes me think site.com/blog is better if for no other reason, it would give our domain greater traffic. Not sure if this matters, but some site info: our site is a sharing economy tool for renting your stuff we are running the blog on Wordpress blog traffic is about 5% of total traffic

H1 tag in Blank in Wordpress website
Good evening, I have noticed using some h1 checkers, that my primary h1 tag is blank. I manually introduced an h1 with my main keywords, but system recognises as 2 different h1 tags, and therefore it could be harmful for my SEO purposes. I created my wordpress website using Artisteer. Is there any specific way (or plugin) to change this primary h1 tag so it wont appear as blank? My site is www.outletspain.net Thanks in advance Maria Jesus
