I have a client that I used Moz Local services for, and I'm seeing lots of urls such as https://www.omegalab.neustarlocaleze.biz/directory/us/?after=2020-09-05T01:52:28.343352Z&count=50 being shown as follow backlinks in other software. Anyone else seeing this and think it might be an issue?

Quick question on this...

For product attributes in Woocommerce, like pa_color, would you put

Disallow: /pa_* to keep all attribute pages from being crawled via robots.txt?

I actually looked into this a little further before developing conditionals, and I noticed it is possible in Yoast.  You have to go to Products - Attributes, then the Gear icon, then select noindex.

Thank you, I think that is a good solution, and I've done similar conditional noindex tags on real estate websites, so I'll try it out for Woocommerce.  I was wrong to think this should be included in Woocommerce, and instead it should likely be a component of the SEO plugin (in my case that is Yoast SEO)

That is only for the XML Sitemap exclusion though. Just because they are not included in the sitemap, doesn't mean they won't be indexed, correct?  Shouldn't their be a way to noindex/nofollow these?

Hi friends! I have a question that is advanced Woocommerce and seo-related.
I'm seeing http://www.mywebsitex.com/pa_keyword/indexed in Google, but it cannot be properly optimized, and I would prefer to have a WordPress Page indexed for that keyword instead, which also lists those products and can be fully seo optimized. Woocommerce SEO plugin by Yoast lacks documentation and I have no clue if that would even fix this. I do have the Taxonomy (pa_keyword) set to not include these in the sitemap, but there doesn't seem to be a way to noindex/nofollow product attributes.
1. How can I best accomplish this?
2. Why are product attributes indexed by default?

Hi friends, I know this is a minor technical change, but we are in an extremely competitive market and I don't want to have any points against us. On our WordPress Category pages i.e. http://www.domain.com/category/�tegory-title%/

I looked at the code behind the the Title of the category page, which is "Browsing: %Category Title%" The code is an h2. I look at the posts in the category archive below, and those are also h2's. The theme preview is here and you can click on Entertainment - Reviews to see exactly what I'm referring to - http://themeforest.net/item/smartmag-responsive-retina-wordpress-magazine/full_screen_preview/6652608

I changed the code for the "Browsing: %Category Title%" to h1, which I believe is more consistent and standard formatting.

1. Is this a correct technical on-page optimization?

2. Would it be beneficial to remove "Browsing"?

Just an fyi for anyone who is using the Woocommerce and Yoast plugin, you can remove the additional features, custom attributes, and other Taxonomies that you may not want indexed via XML Sitemaps - Taxonomies.

I see now, thank you good sir! The answer to that question is likely "no" Now to hunt for a solution in the WordPress/Woocommerce/Yoast environment.

Hmmm thank you for the feedback. Google is not indexing these though...

If I google a phrase "egardwatches.com  filter 128" to find this url  -http://www.egardwatches.com/shop/?filter_additional-features=128 -

It does not appear in Google results, and it has the ? query indicator, which should tell Google it is dynamic?

Are you sure this isn't an issue with Moz crawl only?

How can it be duplicate content if it isn't even indexed?

I'm getting 100's of Duplicate Content warnings for a Woocommerce store I have. The urls are 
 etc

These don't seem to be indexed in google, and the canonical is for the shop base url. These seem to be simply urls generated by Woocommerce filters.

Is this simply a false alarm from Moz crawl?
