      Hi all. I know there several threads related to noindexing blog archives and category pages, so if this has already been answered, please direct me to that post.

      My blog archive pages have preview text from the posts. Each time I post a blog, the last post on any given archive page shifts to the first spot on the next archive page. Moz seems to report these as new duplicate content issues each week.

      I have my archive pages set to meta noindex, so can I feel good about continuing to ignore these duplicate content issues, or is there something else I should be doing to prevent penalties?

      TIA!

      • We are still seeing duplicate content on SEOmoz even though we have marked those pages as "noindex, follow." Any ideas why?
