Is this causing me to drop in rank?

Are there any admin settings in your theme itself? You may something built in that's re-adding the tag at a higher level in the code. Could be an admin flag needs to be reset.

[NoahsDad]

Nope...

Just tried a different browser. Weird thing is that I'm seeing it on some pages, but not on others. For example. it's here still:

http://noahsdad.com/medical/

[Carson-Ward]

I cleared my cache and I still see it on posts. I suppose it's worth asking if you have a caching/site speed plugin?

[NoahsDad]

If you guys are both seeing it, I'm really confused. When I look at my source code, I see this:

[NoahsDad]

Yes, I do. I'm been clearing the cache.

[NoahsDad]

What's strange is when I view the source on that page, I don't see it:

[Carson-Ward]

I see the same as you for that post, but I still see the canoncial on posts like this:

noahsdad.com/big-tex/

This is why I'm thinking you might have fixed it, and we're just seeing an old static version of the page. Re-caching the pages and/or updating posts might fix it up.

[NoahsDad]

@Carson,

This is so odd. When I look at the page, I see this. Am I seeing something different than what you are seeing?

[Carson-Ward]

We are definitely not seeing the same thing. Are you perchance using a content delivery network? It might just take some time to update if so.

I suggest we both keep an eye on it and make sure that it's fixed for both of us going forward

[NoahsDad]

Nope, no content delivery network. This is crazy.  No idea what's happening.

[NoahsDad]

I'm seeing the bad canonical tag gone now. Are you seeing the same thing? Maybe just had a short-term caching issue.

[Carson-Ward]

Yeah, looks like I was of no use at all I'm glad it's working.

Peter, I just discovered I have tons of duplicate content & titles. How can I fix them? It is hurting.

[Dr-Pete]

I'm afraid there's no one, easy answer. I have a comprehensive post about dupe content here:

That was great content sir ! i added the comments there - adding the same question here also !

This article is very huge and will print it for better understanding !

My problem with the blog is the Duplicate content is marked as for Search Terms or Tags ! like i have written 10 post about design art, i added tags as "design art" in the tag form. using WordPress.org self hosted website !
