Noindex for tags in wordpress
-
Hello everybody.
I marked all of my tags in a WordPress site as "noindex,follow". Because my tags were made a lot of low-quality pages.
Am I did it right?
my website is: https://injazanoonas.ir

Sometimes, when a WordPress website is being designed, whether it is an e-commerce or a brochure website, the web designers might write a no index code. This needs to be removed if you want to get that page indexed

@dannybaldwin tag and tag pages aren't worth much in the eyes of google. So it's fine to noindex them (you want to use "noindex, nofollow"). Just ensure Google/Bing can find pages that provide value to users and that you build internal links pointing to these pages.
-
if your company website can't get crawled and indexed, it will not appear on Google,
so this does needs to be fixed.
We saw this with a company selling luxury summerhouses, and if say pages, blog posts cant get indexed, then can negatively affect the seo.

yes, but now go the complete way. Get rid of the links to these tags, because you link to stuff you don't want to index, is low quality and i bet not used. Why sent google there every time?
If they are used you may change your opinion and do something different with the tags - but I saw them and the links, they are not in use i bet.

Traffic to blog home page is going down after changing my WordPress Theme
I recently changed my wordpress theme from a standard free theme to a newer theme. The home page I switched up a bit adding more calls to action to some of our top posts and leading people to popular categories and so on. This greatly improved the usability of our site as it allowed us to highlight new posts. The previous free template simply listed 10 of our most recent posts on a page with small snippets and then you had to move to the next page to keep reading. Since switching my theme the blog traffic has stayed relatively level. That being said, the specific posts traffic is going up a lot whereas the organic traffic to the blog homepage is now nearly depleted. Is this a common thing to happen or is there anything I can do to fix this issue?

WordPress Guest Post Admin Access?
Is there a plugin or function in WordPress for a guest poster to just get admin access to control comments? Example: Big Brand X writes a guest post on www.yoursite.com. Big Brand X wants admin access to approve or delete comments on their guest on www.yoursite.com. Big Brand X doesn't want access to edit their guest post or any other post on www.yoursite.com, they just want admin access to manage the comments on their guest post. Is this possible? Thanks for the help!

Duplicate Page Content WordPress blog with categories?
Just got a crawl report back from SEOmoz and it gives me lots of errors for "duplicate page content". Upon investigating, I notice this is because my WP blog is setup into categories so the home page is almost identical to one of the category pages. None of my actually posts are the same but the category pages have some overlap since the same post could show up in two or more categories. Is this a problem or can I just ignore this error? Any thing I should be doing differently? Thanks!
