          Hi there,

          /collections/living-room-furniture/black
          /collections/living-room-furniture/fabric

          Is that ok to make all the above filter pages canonicalised with their main category /collections/living-room-furniture

          Also, does it needs to be noindex, follow as well?

          Note - already removed the content from filter pages, updated meta tags as well.

          Please advice, thank you

              Are those main category pages (like /collections/living-room-furniture) or are they different?

                And what about the URLs like:

                /collections/alpha-asc-100-500
                /collections/alpha-asc-boardroom-chairs

                Does it needs to be noindex, follow OR noindex, nofollow?

                  As Joe said canonical is fine. No need to play with all the other tags, leave them alone!

                    Hello, canonicalisation will suffice in this context.

                      Hello, Smart People!
                      We need help solving the problem with Google indexing.
                      All pages of our website are crawled and indexed. All pages, including those mentioned, meet Google requirements and can be indexed. However, only this page is still not indexed.
                      Robots.txt is not blocking it.
                      We do not have a tag "nofollow"
                      We have it in the sitemap file.
                      We have internal links for this page from indexed pages.
                      We requested indexing many times, and it is still grey.
                      The page was established one year ago.
                      We are open to any suggestions or guidance you may have. What else can we do to expedite the indexing process?

                      Shifting target keyword to a new page, how do we rank the internal page?

                      I have been targeting one keyword for home page that was ranking between the postilion 6-7 but was never ranking on 1st as there were 2 highly competitive keywords targeted on the same page, I changed the keyword to an internal service page to rank it on 1st, I have optimized the content as well but the home page is still ranking on 11th, how do I get the internal page rank on that keyword

                      FAQ page structure

                      I have read in other discussions that having all questions on an FAQ page is the way to go and then if the question has an answer worthy of its own page, you should abbreviate the answer and link to the page with more content. My question is when using some templates in WP, they have a little + button you can click and it reveal the answer to the question. Does this hurt SEO versus having all text visible and then using headers/subheaders? An example of the + button https://fyrfyret.dk/faq/

                      Each page with a different meta description?

                      each page on my website represents a different department, can I program the header to show a different meta description on each page or should there only be 1 meta description tag per domain?

                      ECommerce Filtering Affect on SEO

                      I'm building an eCommerce website which has an advanced filter on the left hand side of the category pages. It allows users to tick boxes for colours, sizes, materials, and so on. When they've made their choices they submit (this will likely be an AJAX thing in a future release, but isn't at time of writing). The new filtered page has a new URL, which is made up of the IDs of the filter's they've ticked - it's a bit like /department/2/17-7-4/10/ My concern is that the filtered pages are, on the most part, going to be the same as the parent. Which may lead to duplicate content. My other concern is that these two URLs would lead to the exact same page (although the system would never generate the 'wrong' URL) /department/2/17-7-4/10/ /department/2/**10/**17-7-4/ But I can't think of a way of canonicalising that automatically. Tricky. So the meat of the question is this: should I worry about this causing issues with the SEO - or can I have trust in Google to work it out?

                      Pagination for product page reviews

                      Hi, I am looking to add pagination on product pages (they have lots of reviews on the page). I am considering using rel="next/prev, to connect the series of review pages to the main product page. I unfortunately don't have a view-all page for these reviews or the option to get one - the reviews refresh on the same product page (by clicking whatever number page of reviews). This means each page has the exact same description content and everything else, but with different reviews. In this case is rel=next a good option? The format currently would be: On example.com/product link rel="next" href="http://example.com/product?review-p2" On example.com/product?review-p2 link rel="prev" href="http://example.com/product, link rel="next" href="http://example.com/product?review-p3 etc. Would this be a good format for product page reviews? I see rel=nextprev commonly used on ecommerce category/list pages but not really on the paginated reviews on product pages, so I thought I would see if anyone has advice on how best to solve this. I'm also wondering if it would be best to not combine this with a canonical tag on all the different review pages pointing to the product page, seeing as the reviews are actually different (despite the rest of the content being identical). I am hoping to pick up longer tail traffic from this, I figure by connecting the pages and not using canonicals that this way I could get more traffic from the phrases used in the reviews. By leaving out the canonicals, is it possible a user searching for phrases that might be deeper in the series, to land on, say, ?review-p4? Any thoughts if this would drive more traffic? Thanks!.

                      URL for location pages

                      Hello all We would like to create clean, easy URLs for our large list of Location pages. If there are a few URLs for each of the pages, am I right when I'm saying we would like this to be the canonical? Right now we would like the URL to be: For example
                      Domain.com/locations/Columbus I have found some instances where there might be 2,3 or more locations in the same city,zip. My conclusion for these would be: adding their Branch id's on to the URL
                      Domain.com/locations/Columbus/0304 Is this an okay approach? We are unsure if the URL should have city,State,zip for SEO purposes?
                      The pages will have all of this info in it's content
                      BUT what would be best for SEO and ranking for a given location? Thank you for any info!
