Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Cheers for the immediate answers. Really appreciate it. The truth is when u see these 2 pages account for 60% of Organic clean, it's scary to no index them

H1 and Title Tags are the same yes Thomas.

That's a great question. These 2 pages now account for 60% of the Organic Clean traffic.

Outside of the H1, the rest of the page is duplicate content.

For example, the job listing page is a listing of all Jobs.

It contains the Title, and the first 3 lines of each job description.

I am assuming that (almost immediately) if these pages become no index, the pages with the full text will appear.

Our site is an online Marketplace for Services.

Naturally, we have a lot of unique content in the form of :
a) Job Posts
b) Profiles of Service Providers

We also have 2 very important pages:
a) The Job Listing Page
b) The Service Provider Page

The Listing pages have very valuable H1 Titles, but everything else is duplicate content.

To capture those keywords currently in H1, we have created a different landing page for each category page, and we`ll optimize around that, so these H1s are not that big of a deal any more.

These landing pages are the key to our SEO strategy and we are building new content every day to help them rank

I want to make the Listing Pages No Index Follow.

This way they pass Juice to Jobs, and Profiles which have unique contents, but are not indexed themselves.

Is this a bad idea?

I have been thinking about doing this for over a year but it never felt important enough to be worth the risk of accidentally screwing up

We `ll soon do a new on page flow optimization and that's why I am considering this again.

Thank you so much in advance
