Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you for this info. I've been going back on forth in removing the dates probably for at least a year now. Always concerned about performance but I know that leaving the dates in there is just bad. We're going to give it a shot and see what happens. People keep telling me with as many posts that I have the concern is performance but maybe this is just bad info. Thanks!

Hello!

I have a recipe website with over 1000 posts. Currently I have the month and year in the permalink that everyone is hinting off to me is bad. On the same front people tell me if I change the permalinks to just the post name it's going to significantly slow down my site.

I'm torn on this one about changing. From Google's standpoint is it better to change to the post name and if so should I be fearing I'm going to run into trouble with the change?

Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.

Thanks!!!

I'm debating on what the best category structure is for a recipe website and was looking to get some advice. It's a recipe/travel/health fitness blog but recipes reign on the site.

Should it be:

Option A

website name\recipe\type of recipe\URL of specific recipe

or

Option B

website name\type of recipe\url of specific recipe (and just cut out the 'recipe' category name)

Any advise would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Thanks for the response! I already have the rel=next and prev added to the page but I'm still getting Duplicate Page Title errors in my dashboard for all of my subpages (such as http://thelemonbowl.com/breakfast/page/2).

Should I be setting a 'noindex' to my subpages to prevent this from happening?

Thanks again!

Hello All! Looking at my campaign I noticed that I have a large number of 'duplicate page titles' showing up but all they are the various pages at the end of the URL. Such as, http://thelemonbowl.com/tag/chocolate/page/2 as a duplicate of http://thelemonbowl.com/tag/chocolate. Any suggestions on how to address this? Thanks!
