    Hi there..

    If there are any Wordpress Seo experts here I would be grateful if you can explain this.. I see the below on many wordpress blogs, to me this looks like duplicate content.... this is how my blog is set up but surely this means each time I post it is duplicated 2 more times?


    this is my post page which is fine..

    http://www.mydomain.com/category/page-title/

    ............................................
    this is the page that the tag cloud links to

    my page duplicated here isn't it?

    http://www.mydomain.com/tag/page-title/

    ................................................

    this is the category page.. my page is displayed here so is that the thrid piece of duplicate content?

    http://www.mydomain.com/category/page-title/

    ..........................................................


    everyone talks about dup content but I am lost here?

    Kindest regards David

    Avoid showing full posts on the category pages : http://www.mydomain.com/category/page-title/ [use excerpts]
    Use Just Tags or Categories but not both because you are just creating extra links/pages with no importance.

    Hi majestic12, I wrote a post about this over at SitePoint a while back that shows you exactly what to do with these. You can read about it in my WordPress SEO Checklist.
