Wordpress creates duplicate Title Tags.

[MangoMM]

Pasted from GWT with relation to Duplicate Title Tags:

Gold News | FalkosGold - Page 2
/category/scrap-gold-news/page/2/
/tag/scrap-gold-news/page/2/

2 Gold News | FalkosGold
/category/scrap-gold-news/
/tag/scrap-gold-news/

2 Scrap Platinum | FalkosGold
/gold-platinum-prices/scrap-platinum/
/tag/scrap-platinum/ 2

Any idea how I fix this?

Screenshot attached.

Many thanks

Hi-

I have a couple of recommendations for you.

• Don't give Categories and Tags the same name. This is what is causing your duplicate problems above.
• Consider using NoIndex on your tags. They provide more value to users than they do to the search engines.

Hi MangoMM,

I looked through your website. As I think you have some pagination problem or/and non existing categories/tags,

First  four links are 404 error with content:

"Not Found"

"Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help."

... so you have duplicated content... because it is the same

fifth url

(w.falkosgold.co.uk/gold-platinum-prices/scrap-platinum/)

returns good content ... but sixth is redirection to fifth.

Also have in mind Anthony's recommendations.

Take care

Marek
