Hi - How do you get rid of duplicate content that was accidentally created on a tag url? For example, when I published a new article, the content was duplicated on: /posts/tag/lead-generation/

[treetopgrowthstrategy]

the original article was created with: /posts/shippers-looking-for-freight-brokers/

How can I fix this so a new URL is not created every time I add a tag to a new posting?

Many times, you would simply noindex,follow the tag pages to prevent this.   Alternatively, you could look at conditionally noindexing the tag pages unless there is a minimum number of posts applied so as to prevent the tag pages from being indexed when they only have 1-2 blog posts associated, and therefore would be overly similar to the blog page itself.

Also, be sure to use snippets/excerpts on tag pages vs. the entire post.

I agree with what Angular Marketing said. Normally I would just NoIndex, Follow tag pages because they can be useful for people but troublesome for bots.
