Multiple product pages causes duplicate content

[draneb]

Hello,

I need help fixing an issue... I logged into the Google Webmaster Tools area and notice that under HTML suggestions it mentions that I have 30 duplicate title pages and 30 duplicate meta description pages.

When checking out the links they are all from multiple product pages like this
Apparel-C24.aspx?s=Name ASC&p=1
Apparel-C24.aspx?s=Name ASC&p=5

I am using this code in the categorygrid4 file
Page.Title = _Category.Name + " yada, yada and yada.";

Is there anyway to append the Page number, or something else, to the title tag if there is more than 1 page of products?

I guess the same thing would need to be done to the meta description. That code is in my pagehelper.cs file and is also dynamically generated.

Thank you very much.

I remember doing this before. Was it for you and Able 5? I added the page number into the title or url, if I remember correctly.

Judy,

You are right I vaguely remember that. It was done for version 5.5.
Hmmm, can we do that again please? I have the same problem again.

I guess this would apply to everyone, right? Even those who manually type in the title and description.

Thank you.

Hello,

Does anyone have an idea how to append something to the title on additional product pages to avoid duplicate content?

Say you have 50 products in a category and display 15 per page. This would be for the additional pages you view. Right now the titles remain the same and Google is saying, No Bueno...
