Duplicate Content Issues & How to Fix Them
WordPress makes life easy for small businesses, bloggers, and WordPress makes life easy for small businesses, bloggers, and large news sites. You have best practices automatically applied in many cases like canonical links and there are plugins for practically everything else you need. With the ease of publishing content and designs, you also have a new issue: Duplicate content. Content duplication is a common reason why a WordPress website won’t rank. Although it’s different from what we traditionally know in SEO as duplicate content (an exact replication of content from wording to code), it is very similar and needs to be addressed. Here are the five most common types of duplicate content issues in WordPress and how to fix them.
Duplicate Content Issues & How to Fix Them
Tags
Tages
Tags are a huge problem for many WordPress websites. When you tag an article it creates a unique page that is full of other content you feel is relevant. The page will feature snippets from articles or full articles. If the tag is the same as a category or main page on your core website (assuming it’s not a blog), then you’ve now created a competitor to that page on your own site. Tags are also usually modified versions of themselves, which creates incredibly similar content that will compete with itself. When this happens, none of the pages will rank and it can potentially devalue the site. Good news! This is an easy fix. You can either get rid of the tags altogether, or you can add meta robots no index do-follow. The no index do-follow tag will tell search engines this is a thin page but follow the links and continue to crawl and index my site. Now search engines will know that the page isn’t as useful as others and you’ve shown them how to discover your good content – the individual posts and pages.
