Looks like the instructions are on the right hand side of the image you've attached.

Going from the data, you have almost 175 Missing Meta Descriptions! Lets start from the top.

"Missing meta Description tag" - This is what text people see when they search for your website, very important. Go to your HTML and add your description in the section, your looking for .

Note: Do not actually add that.

"Duplicate page Content" - This is what it says on the tin! You have copied content all over your website, a famous example of this would be a footer or header which is the same throughout your 100 page website! Spice it up a little, move the words around slightly or better yet add new content to each page, not much, but just a bit.

"Title Element Too Long" - The title of this page would be 'How do I fix these errors'. The title of your page is apparently HUGE, remember, less is more when it comes to Keyword Stuffing. You need to shortern the titles, better yet, make them all unique. For example, instead of a title being: "Paul's Amazingly fantastic Bean and Potato shop" on ALL pages, why not have "Pauls amazing potato shop" and 'Pauls fantastic bean shop' on different pages, unique content in titles is a great thing to do.

"Long URL > 150 Words" - Also, exactly what is says on the tin.

'why-would-anybody-ever-bother-to-ever-go-on-this-incredibly-boring-website-name.co.uk/bad'

'instead-of-this.co.uk/great'

Hope that helps!

Hi Paul

I really appreciate your answer, thanks!!

I can fix the long title errors and the missing meta description but the duplicate page error I think is because im using wordpress it seems to create pages based on tags or page/3/ etc etc...

Any ideas how to fix this duplicate content issue?
