Hi thanks for the infos. I just have the same problem with Alternate... for my Blogger website though there are 2 different pages with different content. So there is no way to index the second page??

I have an issue with alternate pages having proper canonical tags that show 'amp' and 'noamp=mobile.' As you mentioned, it is okay because I use an amp plugin, so there's nothing to be done about that. However, the total number of pages with alternate page canonicals is 34K, but I can only see 1K in the search console. Why is that?

This is a fantastic presentation. Let me ask, I have 7 different shoes to display and each has 5 different images showing various views. The descriptions are the same except for one place in the description where the color is mentioned. They have different SKUs. I am having this on WordPress and the reason for not using variation products is to be able to present the five different images for each. The title of the page reads Kamsy blazing shoe white, Kamsy blazing shoe red, etc. Am I likely to get flagged by Google for duplicate pages?

[edwardrodriguez]

How long does it take to take effect once you disallow the pages? I have done it few days ago and still have over 4k errors. All pages i am trying to disallow have something like ?pr_prod_strat and they are duplicates created as of result of the variants i suppose. Do you know why haven't the errors cleared?

[Edmundostudios]

Is there any reason to disallow these for duplicate pages instead of just ignoring them? I assume there is no actual change in GSC besides it just not showing these anymore

[Aaraaaaaajeieiieibrbd]

can i allow something to crawl like [swcfpc=1]because my 134 pages showing this issue and all have different content.kindly need a little guidance

[Paritashah]

What about in case of using hreflang? Google won't index the page with for eg en_gb version of the same product page..what can be done in this situation? Both the product pages are exactly the same only url has en_gb and we want that product to be visible across multiple countries. Any info on this is appreciated. Thank you!

Awesome video! Given this a go on my new shopify website. So fingers crossed!

Hi there I 301 redirected my default wp site page to a new page I just created. the new page has its own canonical url and did rank on google for a few weeks but now it has the alternative page error. I don't have any errors relating to the urls in the video. Should I just submit for indexing again? I don't want to ignore it because my page is not ranking at all now.

[TruthSpeaker-yjxp]

I get this message when testing my blogger url URL will be indexed only if certain conditions are met...

And when i try to request indexing then it shows - Alternative page with proper canonical tag... And Crawled - currently not indexed...

[RattanasiriAnan-zpdt]

If I do redirect 301 to me new website and It show Duplicate, Google chose different canonical than user. how to fix it ? if my old website has good seo result

[mrespinosa]

If we leave those urls in there and they are no longer on our website, does it affect our other website ranking in a negative way?

[toti_key]

Google is saying for my website is "Alternate page with proper CANONICAL" for www. and when I check/test it in Search Console, it says User-declared canonical: (my domain) without www. So if I check my site without www is indexed and everything well, when I test with www, it says CANONICAL. How can I fix it? Thanks

[artemike]

i have a lot of these "errors" in my GSC. It is too much work to fix them individually. Is it worth fixing ? Do they affect SEO negatively ?
