Why have I lost my #1 ranking?
Hi Taylor, That screenshot is interesting. My assumption would be that Google has seen this duplication and is simply disregarding the other versions of what it considers to be the same content. The reason duplicate content isn't such a huge deal these days (it's not a good thing at all but it won't really get you penalised) is because Google is much better and dealing with it. From my understanding, what you're seeing here is exactly the expectation - they determine which piece seems to be the most relevant and useful to searcher intent based on a number of things, then disregard the others. No point in indexing multiple versions of the same thing, right? As for the smaller bits and pieces, I'll take a closer look at your site again once I'm back in the office this afternoon and let you know
