Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hey SEOMozers,

I'm working with a client that has a suspicious traffic pattern going on. In October, a referral domain called profitclicking.com started passing visits to the site. Almost, in parallel the overall visits decreased anywhere from 35 to 50%.

After checking out profitclicking.com more, it promises more traffic "with no SEO knowledge". The client doesn't think that this service was signed up for internally. Regardless, it obviously smells pretty fishy, and I'm searching for a way I can disallow traffic from this site.

Could I simply just write a simple disallow statement in the robots.txt and be done with it? Just wanted to see if anyone else had any other ideas before recommending a solution.

Thanks!

Thanks so much! I'll give it a try. Really appreciate the tip.

Hello,

I just launched a new site for a client but am seeing some duplicate content issues in the campaign crawl. It has to do with the drill-down, filter "tags" that helps users find the product they are looking for. You can see them in the sidebar here: http://www.ssmd.com/shop/

In my crawl report this is what is showing up as duplicate content (attached image). How do I keep these widgets from generating duplicate content on the site?

Also, not sure if it's important or not, but I am using Wordpress, WooCommerce and Yoast's SEO Tool.

Any suggestions are appreciated!
