Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
I would tend to agree with your point that the title tags should be written in the necessary language, however the the duplicate title tags are all branded products with heritage and reputation, which will not change no matter what the language is.
What are your thoughts on this?

Hi,
I am working on a large global site which has around 9 different language variations.
We have setup the hreflang tags and referenced the corresponding content as follows:
(We have not implemented a version X-default reference, as we felt it was not necessary)
Using DeepCrawl and Search Console, we can see that these language variations are causing duplicate title issues. Many of them.
My assumption was that the hreflang would have alleviated this issue and informed Google what is going on, however i wanted to see if anyone has any experience with this kind of thing before.
It would be good to understand what the best practice approach is to deal with the problem.
Is it even an issue at all, or just the tools being over-sensitive?
Thank you in advance.
Hi Guys,
I am currently working with an eCommerce site which has site-wide duplicate content caused by currency URL parameter variations. Example:
https://www.marcb.com/?setCurrencyId=3
https://www.marcb.com/?setCurrencyId=2
https://www.marcb.com/?setCurrencyId=1
My initial thought is to create a bunch of canonical tags which will pass on link equity to the core URL version. However I was wondering if there was a rule which could be implemented within the .htaccess file that will make the canonical site-wide without being so labour intensive.
I also noticed that these URLs are being indexed in Google, so would it be worth setting a site-wide noindex to these variations also?
Thanks
I am doing some content analysis with over 200 URLs to go through!
Does anybody know of, or can recommend any bulk on-page word count checkers which would help with the heavy lifting?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
