      Wondering if I should remove "IRIS SCOTT PRINTS |" from all the title tags and/or change the url structure of the pages, to not include the breadcrumbs...  I don't really understand the whole rel canonical structure thing.

      Also lots of errors on page title too long - does that really matter?

      Lots of faith in everyone here. Thanks in advance.

        I can only speak from personal experience, but we've done very well with not including our company name in the title tag.  I would think that Iris Scott is unique enough that the competition will be low and you should rank naturally.  When you say title is too long, how many extra characters do you have (over 70).  I don't know how much of a factor that is outside of viewers not seeing the entire snippet in the SERPS.  One could argue that Google would look at that because they want to provide the best experience for their viewers, but I would devote my time doing keyword research instead.  Good luck!

          thanks - does the name in the title tag of every page affect the rel canonical errors I'm seeing from my seomoz crawl reports.

          • Would it be bad to change the canonical URL to the most recent page that has duplicate content, or should we just 301 redirect to the new page?
