3 URLS Being Created All For The Same Page

[annasusmiles]

I use wordpress for my blog and for some reason it is creating triple urls for my pages. I am not sure it has always been like this or not. I just noticed it in the errors section of SEO Moz.

It's all the exact same page. Is there something I can do in my settings to make this stop. I don't imagine this is good. Ya think....ha!

I saw this is the SEO Moz error area for Missing Title Tags.

Apparently the number has gone from 200 to 400 which is weird because I never gave my blog posts meta stuff and I haven't written 200 pages since SEO Moz's last crawl.
Maybe I changed something on my blog settings without even knowing. I can't think for the life of me what that would be though.

Thanks so much and I appreciate any help received.

Edited to add:

I added some plugins over the past week. Maybe it's one of these?

• Category Text
• Category SEO Meta Tags (just deactivated this one)
• PhotoSmash (also deactivated this one)
• Clicky for WordPress

You know, all of the sudden our tracking code added to our pages started counting as separate URLs on our SEOMOZ report.  So, I wonder if they made some update... anyway, I just went and added canonical tags to all of our pages (I should have done that anyway to be honest).  If you are using WordPress than I would suggest the Yoast plug in...

Hi Billy.

Thank you so much. BUT, I don't think I understand what you're saying.  

Are  you saying you think that SEO Moz might have updated something in the way that their system works???

Also, how could you have added canocial tags if you don't have access to anything related to my site?

Hi there,

Sorry for the confusion. That is definitely something with how your blog is set up. It's likely that some sort of category plug in or something along those lines is creating those pages for you in the name of redundancy.

I would suggest you either get rid of the plugin or apply the Canonicals as mentioned by Billy. that way they would at least not be fighting over rankings.

I've heard great things about the Yoast plugin mentioned earlier. I've not personally used it, but it has quite the reputation. It may be worth checking out.

Thanks,

Joel.

Hi Joel Thank you so much responding.

I deleted the plugins I've installed in the last little bit and those urls still seem to exist. It's really quite astonishing all of the ways a plugin can mess things up really badly. Wouldn't Google Panda see it as duplicate content?

Anyways... I can't see how any of the following could have created these pages. You???

• Akismet
• GetClicky for WordPress
• Custom sidebars
• Easy Scheduled Posts
• Formidable
• JJ NextGen Image List
• NextGEN Gallery
• NextGEN Gallery Voting
• ShareThis Social Profiles Widget

Are those pages seriously going to exist even if I delete the plugin that may have created them. Man...that makes me SO mad!!!

If I do the canocial thing does anyone know how I set it up?

I meant that I added canonical tags to my site after I noticed almost the exact same thing that you did so I was suggesting that you do the same.  Sorry for the confusion.  And yes, I was suggesting that perhaps SEOMOZ changed something with their crawl since we both noticed the same thing around the same time.
