Lets Tag Screwing our Blog

July 4th, 2008 | Filed under English entries.

Till now i am still confusing with the important of using tags on my post.

Tags giving a label for our entries. Tags giving a pointed of the important keywords on our entries.
Technorati and other blogs community, they are using tags to create a different labels for millions of their entries.

But on SEO, tags become a trigger for a duplicated contents on our blog.

Each tag they have their own page.
It mean when we create one entries with 5 tags, our blog automatic create 6 different pages too.

All pages they have a different title, different permalink but with a perfectly same of entry.

Yesterday i made little observation using google search.
I was using one blog with a few entries to make my job easy.

What the result is a thing that make me confuse untill right now.

Google giving a duplicated labels for some of my post entries.
But they are giving an original labels for most of my tag pages..

    I presume tags as keywords on paper, they should help people to search common interest. to many keyword will make blur explanation. so i think i am agree with nenyok

    if you install the All in One SEO plugin for Wordpress you will be given an option to nofollow the tag and category pages of your site. That will eliminate the duplicate content issue.
