Magento Duplicate Content Question - HELP!
-
In Magento, when entering product information, does the short description have to be different than the meta description? If they are both the same is this considered duplicate content?
Thanks for the help!!!

True, no matter what the platform is if the Meta description is identical to the description of the product on the page it will not be considered as duplicate content but if the product page content is identical to some other page within or outside the website that will be considered as duplicate content.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick response!

Regardless of the platform, you do not need to worry about meta description being duplicate content from your page content. Meta descriptions are used to help CTR from the SERPs.
However, you shouldn't have duplicate meta descriptions across multiple pages.

Duplicate Content - Bulk analysis tool?
Hi I wondered if there's a tool to analyse duplicate content - within your own site or on external sites, but that you can upload the URL's you want to check in bulk? I used Copyscape a while ago, but don't remember this having a bulk feature? Thank you!

Duplication in landing page
This is driving me mad, I have a site that for some reason google and moz pick up the landing page as a duplicate.

This is occurring both on a localhost test bed and live....... anyone got an idea how to correct.

Exponentially Increasing Duplicate Content On Blogs
Most of the clients that I pick up are either new to SEO best practices, or have worked with sketchy SEO providers in the past, who did little more than build spammy links. Most of them have deployed little if any on-site SEO best practices, and early on I spend a lot of time fixing canonical and duplicate content issues alla 301 redirects. Using SEOMOZ, however, I see a lot of duplicate content issues with blogs that live on the sites I work on. With every new blog article we publish, more duplicate content builds up. I feel like duplicate content on blogs grows exponentially, because every time you write a blog article, it exists provisionally on the blog homepage, the article link, a category page, maybe a tag page, and an author page. I have a two-part question: Is duplicate content like this a problem for a blog -- and for the website that the blog lives on? Are search engines able to parse out that this isn't really duplicate content? If it is a problem, how would you go about solving it? Thanks in advance!

Good morning, I am developing an application that searches offers in the press. The problem I have is the follow one:
On-Page Optimization | | ofuente
When I find an offer that I have already post, I cant use the same URL because it generates duplicate content , as the URL is generated from the title. If I find two offers in different stores (for example Thomson TV) I am studying two options. The first would be to add a number at the end of the URL
http://www.offertazo.com/televisor-thomson
http://www.offertazo.com/televisor-thomson1
http://www.offertazo.com/televisor-thomson2 Another option I propose would be to add semantic data to provide value (such as the date). For example:
http://www.offertazo.com/01-12-12/televisor-thomson I appreciate your help.0 -
