      http://www.earnmoneywithgoogleadsense.com/tag/blog-post/

      http://www.earnmoneywithgoogleadsense.com/tag/effective-blog-post/

      Pages are same. I have 100+ Error on website so how can i remove this error? DO you have any tutorial based on this?  Can i change canonical url at once or i need to set it one by one? If you have any video basis on it, i will recommend.

        I would simply ad noindex in taxonomy (tag) - easy done with yoast, otherwise edit header.php and ask if is tag, than noindex meta tag. I guess it is Wordpress 🙂

          WordPress is good at creating duplicate content. I would check at the official site to see if there is way to disable the archiving "tag" feature as it appears to be redundant.

          Andreas recommendation would work as well, simply check if you're at an archive tag page, if so then display the meta tag noindex.

          You also could do this inside of a robots.txt

          User-agent: *
          Disallow: /tag/*

          This would effectively stop any pages from being crawled when the crawler sees the "tag" directory.

          Hope that helps,

          Don

            of course he could use the robots.txt 🙂
            Yoast may be the easiest way (but exactly that point sometimes isn't working - depends on installed plugins)
