Noindex tags in WordPress

[brandzz]

I'm receiving 4 duplicate content warnings from Roger.They are all "www.mysite/tag/tag-name". I'm using WordPress and have Yoast WordPress SEO installed. Should I set the tags  to "noindex" in the plugin settings?

If you want to avoid it you could do that but It'd really depend on each case since the use you're giving the tags and their usefulness for your users (even in the SERPs) it's what should give you the right answer.

Some resources that could help you make an informed decision:

Also, a search within the Q&A should provide useful information.

Looks like this topic has been discussed before. I may just remove the tags from my posts and just use categories. Since I don't have much content and have used similar tags for the posts it may be causing an issue.
