Hi Sean,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Indeed having the rel=canonical pointing to the wrong page would be another issue. What David Lee suggested me is using the rel=canonical on both the original post and the duplicate post. This can be set programmatically instead of the ignore button.

But surely, the ignore button would be much more easier, in some situations. Please keep us update once this ignore feature has been implement.

Thanks again for your help.

Hi Sheena,

Yes, Moz Crawl Diagnostics Report is showing duplicate title tag for the content that already have a rel=canonical tag.

I contacted them, and they suggested that i should include the canonical tag on the duplicate and original post, where both tags are pointing to the original post.

I have not yet tested it out, but hopefully, this should solve the issue.

Thanks again for your help.

Thanks a lot Karl, indeed with the canonical tag, neither the title nor the content becomes a duplicate.

It's just the MOZ crawl issue that raised the alarm.

Thanks again.

Thanks.

Done since a while and already live

Hello,

We were having duplicate content in our blog (a replica of each post automatically was done by the CMS), until we recently implemented a rel=canonical tag to all the duplicate posts (some 5 weeks ago).

So far, no duplicate content were been found, but we are still getting duplicate title tags, though the rel=canonical is present.

Any idea why is this the case and what can we do to solve it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks a lot for your reply gfiorelli1.

We currently have no redirection based on IP detection nor user agent.

Taking into account the two options you mentioned, the best option would definitely be to make luxresorts.com the main page for the targeted country (while we would make the current default page http://www.luxresorts.com/en 301 to http://www.luxresorts.com) and then having a browser language detection then serve the language accordingly.

Do you think this would be the best thing to do?

Thanks again.

Thanks a lot Andy, we definitely want to preserve the Link Juice, since http://www.luxresorts.com has a higher SEO value, but currently having a 302 to /en.

I guess we would go for the 301 soon.

Hello,

Our website: http://www.luxresorts.com currently has a default 302 redirection to http://www.luxresorts.com/en.

We would like to do a 301 redirection instead of a 302 to http://www.luxresorts.com.

Our concern is that the site is multilingual and we wonder what effect would the 301 redirection have on search engine crawlers and how would this appear on SERP.

When a search is done on Google.com, the English version of our website appears and when on Google.FR, the French version appears. Would the 301 redirection change the way our website appear on Google?

Grateful if you could help us out in understanding the pros and cons/best practices for our concern.

Thanks in advance.

Tej Luchmun.
