Hi there

With tag pages you should noindex these. They serve no purpose in the SERPs, you only want your quality pages to be indexed.

That being said, I would also check your sitemap to make sure that these tag URLs aren't listed and prioritized. Try that and see if this clears the issue up. Here's a resource.

Hope this helps - good luck!

Hey, I can't find them on your site.

Is it possible that those pages are part of an older version of your site? I can only see /category/ folder but google definitely indexed 600 of your urls containing such tag.

As Patrick said I really recommend you to noindex all archive, category and tag pages as they are just thin pages useful for user navigation but not for google.

After you have added the noindex tag you may ask google to remove them from index and you'll ahve your issues solved

I would not no index any pages, this sounds like a job for a canonical tag.

if you do decide to noindex pages, make sure you noindex,follow, you never want links pointing to no nofolow pages as they pour away link juice into the ether. if you make sure they are follow the link juice will pour back thought the out links on the pages.

I crawled your site and did not find any links pointing to those urls.

I did find a lot of other problems, the worse being 100 broken links, and 160 unnecessary redirects.

Hey guys...wonder if I could bother you again on this...in webmaster tools, I am getting lots of "URL Errors"

47 Not Found

8 Soft 404

Most are dated recently, within last month or so....what am I doing wrong?

[mememax]

heheh well I'd love that 47 not found could be "lots" by the way, where are thos links coming from? What you have to bear in mind is that it's not the same if the 404 is caused by internal or external linking.

If internal, then you have to see which page is creating the 404 and fix it

If external you have to ask the webmaster for fixing the link and meanwhile have the 301 in place so you can save the value of those links..
