    Default Wordpress SEO issue advice please

    Right, for some reason 1 site i have is giving funny results in G.

    If i search for a post title i keep getting the site rather than the post in the results. Generally top of course but the site not the post which is not good ofc

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en...&meta=&aq=&oq=

    any ideas?

    Could be a headspace or seo tools setting maybe?

    Grasping at straws but, are you using the All in One SEO plugin and if so have you ticked the Canonical URL's option? Not sure if that would help.

    I never tick the canonical urls and it never happens on my other wp sites.

    Infact i am sure when i did tick that box my permalinks would not work as i told them to.

    Canonical is correct from what i see

    Index is now how I do things:

    <link rel='index' title='West Brom Blog, news, views, ticket info and match reports.' href='http://westbromblog.co.uk' />


    Seems like the all in one seo pack is writing over itself from a quick look...


    Those are my hints for the day...Ill look more later.

    Yes, the seo pack seems to duplicate the title and description, not sure why?

    Perhaps it is because i am using headspace too?

    Would this be why the individual pages are not getting offered in searches maybe?

    How could anyone other than mrspomp not speak highly of me at the moment.
    You know what I am reffering too.
