Wordpress Problems.. SEO-Yoast is Toast?
-
Hello;
I have installed the WP Yoast Widget in my Blog, and 2 weeks, after my issues went away, they came back X's 300! lol
So I uninstalled it, and my issues obviously got worse, and then I re-activated, and reset everything, and still got the 300+ issues.
Is there a secondary plug in you would suggest, to run at the same time as Yoats, or theat will fix all issues?
Ever think of making an SEOmoz Widget for WP since it is gaining so much popularity??
Thank you
Great work by the way! Loved the Webinar today!

I will try this now. And Review the crawl report next week.
Thank you!

I would only run one SEO plugin at a time. Use either Yoast SEO or All In One SEO, but not both. They both change variables on the site that could conflict with one another.
I guest wrote an article for The Modern Tog on how to properly set up the Yoast SEO plugin.
http://www.themoderntog.com/how-to-configure-wordpress-seo-plugin-by-yoast-for-maximum-online-exposureIn my opinion it's the best plugin out there. But you need to know how to effectively set it up. Once you get it set up, you only need to use it on a post by post basis.

Hello; Thank you for your help.
Here was my original question (Dated) 8/12/2011
I installed All in One SEO Pack widget, as recommended by SEOmoz a while back, and my Notices for this are higher. To fix the Connicalization issues with my Blog, on WP, but it keeps adding the page name in the URL, as displayed
My Blog location is in Bold below:
http://www.cisaz.com/blog/cisaz-s..." />
After I installed Yoast; my reports were fine for a week, and now. I cannot get the blow issues fixed. It's like Yoast worked, then was overlooked, a week later. Below is the best the reports have looked this whole time.
Crawl Errors Found were 5 or 6 Duplicate Content worst case
A week later "Title Missing or Empty" - 165
Crawl Notices Found were 8 worst case
"Rel Canonical" - 202 <- This was the original issue
Crawl Warnings Found
"Missing Meta Description Tag" - 162

What should I name my Wordpress homepage?
I work almost exclusively in wordpress now. And I always hesitate when it comes to naming a site's homepage. I have to give it a name - right? I usually pick the business name or /home. And then that is identifies as the site's static homepage in the Wordpress settings and it works just fine. But I've started to get warning that it is an issue because it creates redirects. For example, I just ran the Ryte service analysis on a website and it warned me about "Non-indexable pages with high relevance" and it's basically my homepage that has 29 incoming links that "passes all pagerank to https://ourdomain/home But what am I supposed to call my homepage if not "Home"? It's not like the old days where anyone has to type it in. The root domain loads the homepage just as it should. Can anybody advise me regarding best practices for what to name a Wordpress homepage for good SEO? With thanks in advance for your help.

Tough SEO problem, Google not caching page correctly
My web site is http://www.mercimamanboutique.com/ Cached version of French version is, cache:www.mercimamanboutique.com/fr-fr/ showing incorrectly The German version: cache:www.mercimamanboutique.com/de-de/ is showing correctly. I have resubmitted site links, and asked Google re-index the web site many times. The German version always gets cached properly, but the French version never does. This is frustrating me, any idea why? Thanks.

Duplicate Content on SEO Pages
I'm trying to create a bunch of content pages, and I want to know if the shortcut I took is going to penalize me for duplicate content. Some background: we are an airport ground transportation search engine(www.mozio.com), and we constructed several airport transportation pages with the providers in a particular area listed. However, the problem is, sometimes in a certain region multiple of the same providers serve the same places. For instance, NYAS serves both JFK and LGA, and obviously SuperShuttle serves ~200 airports. So this means for every airport's page, they have the super shuttle box. All the provider info is stored in a database with tags for the airports they serve, and then we dynamically create the page. A good example follows: http://www.mozio.com/lga_airport_transportation/ http://www.mozio.com/jfk_airport_transportation/ http://www.mozio.com/ewr_airport_transportation/ All 3 of those pages have a lot in common. Now, I'm not sure, but they started out working decently, but as I added more and more pages the efficacy of them went down on the whole. Is what I've done qualify as "duplicate content", and would I be better off getting rid of some of the pages or somehow consolidating the info into a master page? Thanks!

Multiple redirects a problem?
When product is sold out I will 301 redirect to a category page if a similar product is not available, but now our web developer has changed all the url's of the category pages so I need to redirect them all to the new category pages but that means there are some products that are first being redirected to the no longer existent category and then being redirected again to the new category page. This seems like it might me be a problem having two 301 redirects so I wanted to find out for sure if it is. Unfortunately our system for redirecting pages is archaic so it will be difficult and time consuming to go back and redo all the redirects that are going to pages that no longer exist so I wanted to get some additional opinions before I do that.

How do you stop Wordpress spam
What's the best way to stop Wordpress spam? We don't let comments go live without moderation, so the spammers don't succeed, however it wastes time going through the comments. A captcha code could work but a lot of software can crack it. Are there any good captcha solutions or could something else work better/in conjunction? Also, is there anywhere to report spam IP addresses? Not sure much happens when you mark a comment as spam in Wordpress.
