Should I hide the blog post pages that are automatically built in WordPress?

[BlackDogStudios]

The pages that are automatically created through WordPress (ex: blog post page 5) are popping up as pages that don't have titles or descriptions. Should I use a branded title and description on those pages or hide them from the search engines? Since it's pulling blog posts to create the pages, keywords are all over the place as well. What's the best course of action?

Ex: http://www.blackdogeducation.com/blog/page/2/

They have titles. In your example, the title of page is:

Blog | Black Dog EducationBlack Dog Education | Page 2

And I wouldn't hide them, since they are valuable, too.

Hi Mike

In general, I will always "noindex subpages of archives" which is a setting you can check off with the Yoast SEO Plugin. Anything with a /page/2/ or /page/3/ etc is a "subpage" and checking off that setting in Yoast will noindex them, which is the best thing to do.

You can see the WordPress SEO post I did on Moz for more WP stuff.
