Duplicate page titles

[lilibooz]

We have search results pages on our site.

They share the same page title, there is no real differentiator between the result pages, other than page 1, page 2 etc.

How do we de-dup the titles? just add page 1/2/3 etc to the end of them?

Does your site have the ability to choose number of products to display per page on the Search Result Pages ? Do you also have a View-All page ? Do you have canonical tags on these Paginated pages ? I am trying to understand whether you also have Duplicate content issues along with the Duplicate Page title issue...

thanks, yes we are also getting dup content issues.

not sure i fully understand the canonical tag option.

example of the pages with issues are here - http://shoply.com/marketplace/accessories/

To expand on Nakul, and after checking out your site, I'd say your best-case option is to use rel canonical to indicate to Google which your preferred page would be (in your case, I'd say the first page or a view-all page). This will address your duplicate content issues.

As for duplicate title, using a canonical will take care of the SEO penalty associate with that. If you just want to see a smaller number in that red box in SEOMoz, just add a variable to the end of the title tag based on the page.
