Hi guys,
I'm running a Wordpress blog. I've read many SEO tut telling Category pages can make duplicate content. Should I block Google from indexing the Category pages? Pls give me some advice.
Thanks. If you don't put same post on multiple categories there would be no problem.
Duplicate content would be possible if you categorize all posts for all the categories, which is kind of dumb thing to do. i haven't encounter any problem with it, so far ... Hmmmmm, as i think of it there's only two situation that might cause this duplicate issue on Category section of your site:
1. If all your post have different unique label/tags/category or so whatever you want to call it. In other words if you have 10 posts, you also have 10 categories.
2. if an individual post have too many categories.
Now i understand why blogger.com's robots.txt by default Disallow: /search
I put 1 post in 2 categories only. Can this make duplicate content?
