Yoast plug in - title settings
-
Hi,
I am using yoast plugin and having problems with title.
For example, my recent post http://www.soobumimphotography.com/bulverde-realtor-headshot/
It's showing as "Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot PhotographerSan Antonio Wedding Photography JournalSo basically, homepapge title is followed on every single page and post.
I would like Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot Photographer
Could you help with this?

I'm having a similar difficulty on my own site - the words "Philadelphia SEO Company" are being appended to end of every post, not pages, posts only.
- I've ticked "force rewrite titles" on the Yoast General tab.
- I'm using "%%title%% " in the title template for both pages and posts on the Post Types tab.
- I have not touched the header.php file.
Any ideas?
-
Here's how I've set up the plugin:
Under Yoast plugin settings: Titles & Metas > Check <label for="forcerewritetitle">Force rewrite titles</label>
Cautions: Any default title will be re-written by the plugin, I'm using this option because I'm optimizing titles & descriptions on all posts & pages.

This is only SEO plug in that I need to learn so it's worth spend sometime.
Thanks again

No problem, you must spend few hours to learn full potential of yoast plugin at the beginning it can be confusing. Good luck!

That was fix. Thank you so much
-
go to yoast seo > title & meta > under post title template set only title
may be your problem will resolved...

You have another title set in General Settings in Wordpress. That's why you have duplicated title.

Exact Match Domain & Title Tag / URL
I currently own an exact match domain for my keyword. I have it set up with multiple pages and also a blog. The home page essentially serves as a hub and contains links to all the pages and the blog. My targeted keyword is on its own page and I made the title tag the same as my keyword. As an example the URL for my targeted post looks like this: benefitsofrunningshoes.com/benefits-of-running-shoes I have solid, non-spammy content and clean whitehat earned backlinks directing to that specific page. My concern right now is that the URL looks kinda spammy. The website has been live for about a week and the home page ranks well enough but my targeted page is no where to be found. (it does show up if I manually search via search command "site:benefitsofrunningshoes.com"). I'm wondering if it is acceptable to use the exact keyword in title tag / page url if it is also in the domain as an EMD? Should I change the title tag and leave the URL in? Or should I completely change the title tag and URL and 301 redirect to the new page? I appreciate any help!

How do crawl errors from SEOmoz tool set effect rankings?
Hello - The other day I presented the crawl diagnostic report to a client. We identified duplicate page title errors, missing meta description errors, and duplicate content errors. After reviewing the report we presented it to the clients web company who operates a closed source CMS. Their response was that these errors are not worthy of fixing and in fact they are not hurting the site. We are having issues getting the errors fixed and I would like your opinion on this matter. My question is, how bad are these errors? Should we not fix them? Should they be fixed? Will fixing the errors have an impact on our site's rankings? Personally, I think the question is silly. I mean, the errors were found using the SEOmoz tool kit, these errors have to be effecting SEO.....right? The attached image is the result of the Crawl Diagnostics that crawled 1,400 pages. NOTE: Most of the errors are coming from Pages like blog/archive/2011-07/page-2 /blog/category/xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxx/page-2 testimonials/147/xxxxx--xxxxx (xxxx represents information unique to the client) Thanks for your insight! c9Q33.png

Duplicate Page Title for Wordpress
Hello, We are using WP for our blog and keep getting Dup Page Title errors for our 12 author archives pages. The title of each page is the same, but I am wondering if this is WP issue with canonicalization working properly. The most recent four pages have a linking root domain and carry some Page Authority, but the older pages do not. Is this what Rand was talking about in his Google+ whiteboard Friday talk about blog post relevancy not lasting as long as articles? Here's what it looks like. Side question, is there a reason why the SEO Moz website doesn't have a Google+ button anywhere easy to find? Thank you, Michael
