      How do you mean 'is this bad' - what aspect?

      It's not great that your meta description is the same on each page. It should describe the page, not be generic to the whole site.

        I believe what you are missing is the pagination markup link rel="prev"/rel="next". This is why all the paginated content is indexed, although you have a canonical link set up.

            Usually Wordpress SEO by Yoast implements this automatically when we are talking about category/tag/date/etc. archive pages.

            In case of the homepage, I do not know personally where to implement it - I'd need to see the code for it. 🙂

                I am not 100% sure. For that I would need to have a look at the php code.

                For sure, now it is not implemented.

                    So the question really is, what kind of page template does the homepage use in order to pull in the data. We would need to modify that in order to put in the pagination.

                    P.S. Sorry for the late reply.

                      ok. and what code does this template needs if you can tell me ?

                      and I can say that is a static page if this helps.

                      thank you

                        Ivan, correct that homepage is a "static page", which has a custom template in your theme directory.

                        That template has a loop which is going to show your latest articles on the homepage. That's part of the file you need to edit.

                            After some research made, I have found the following code, which could be implemented in the theme's functions.php:

                            function rel_next_prev(){global $paged;if( get_previous_posts_link()){?>
                            }if( get_next_posts_link()){?>
                            }}
                            add_action('wp_head','rel_next_prev');?>

                            Try it out, and let me know when it is live. We can then check if it works well or not.
