      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?

                  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

                    James

                        Internal blog with history and some SEO value versus new external blogs with specialized content?

                        We operate a blog inside a folder on our site and considering the launch of 4 highly focused blogs with specialized content which are now categories on the internal blog. Wondering if there is more value in using the external new blogs or just keep growing the internal blog content. Does fact that the internal blog is buried amongst millions of pages have any impact if we want the content indexed and value given to the links from the blog content to our main site pages.

                        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

                        Franchise-Like Duplicate Sites

                        I know that ideally businesses that operate as franchises should have 1 site with separate location pages. However, I have a slightly different issue. Each location is owned by a different parent company, and named accordingly. For example, there is "Location by XYZ Company" and "Location by ABC Company." In addition, each location, while carrying similar products, does not carry the same exact products and brands. So my question is how would you go about writing the content for each of these sites, keeping the same tone but avoiding duplicate content?

                        Images & Duplicate Content Issues

                        Here's a scenario for you: The site is running WordPress and the images are uploaded to the media section. You can set image attributes there such as the Description & Alt Tag. Let's say you'd like to reuse the same image in two different blog posts. The image keeps the same Description & Alt Tag associated with it in the media section. Would this be considered duplicate content? What would be the best practice in this case to reuse the same image in multiple posts?

                        How do I fix a broken link to a product category page in wordpress?

                        We are building a new site currently at http://67.222.109.48/~cheapnan/ I started doing some SEO after the developer I hired failed to do it even though it was in the agreement. I did our old site so I should be able to do this but I am new to wordpress. Now when i go to the products tab at the top of the page the first 2 have broken links, I checked the rest and there are 3 total that I need to fix.  I am unsure how to access the navigation so I can fix the links.  Please tell me where to look.

                        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

                        Duplicate external links?

                        I have been guest posting at a variety of reputable blogs in my niche.  I generally write once or twice a month and have a bio link with a link to my blog.  I'm wondering if multiple links from the same domain (but different pages) helps, or if there are some diminishing returns here. Should I only be writing one post for them? Of course, there are other non-SEO benefits too, because these are reputable sites.  But I'm wondering how this helps my SEO? Thanks in advance!
