Thanks!

Yes, our positions are gradually declining, and I'm trying everything I can, no matter how seemingly small, until I can figure out why.

Another question is which would be worse for SEO: leaving it the way it is, categorized by month and date, or changing the whole structure when I have dozens of posts?

Obviously I'm not saying don't build links. I'm saying don't waste time on links of no value. What makes a link have value will always be a topic of debate, a debate i do not have time for.

I have seen thousands of sites like this that have been created with the sole purpose of placing links and articles on to help ranking. I predict that one day Google will catch on and these sites will face a similar fate as did the Panda affected sites of last year.

What's even worse than that is paying a lot and getting something that will actually hurt you, which is what usually happens with those kinds of services.

I used a very similar service that promised 25 edu backlinks for 25 dollars. It was a huge mistake, as all they did was place spam comments on dofollow edu blogs. We actually saw our ranking drop a couple of spaces because of this. I learned my lesson and will never do anything like this again. Hence, I do not recommend this. Any company that charges to get you links usually only acquires poor quality links.

Thanks for the input. The reason I'm worried about duplicate pages is because what i temporarily switched everything to category/postname, I could access pages many different ways.

category1/postname/page

category2/postname/page

anothercategory/postname/page

Were all the same page. Duplicate content?

Mostly everyone seems to agree that /%category%/%postname%/ is the best blog structure.

I'm thinking of changing my structure to that because now it's structured by date which is bad. But almost all of my posts are assigned to more than one category. Won't this create duplicate pages?
