Code Avoid Duplicate Content In Blogger - Blogspot

How To Evade Duplicate Content In Blogger - Blogspot

When this blog was launched on the blogger platform, I set out to accomplish SEO Optimization and better indexing of my posts.

For a minute I thought to myself, if blogger blogs are owned by Google, they’d automatically be exempted from Google’s Duplicate Content Policy. Well I was living in denial.

A search for this problem on Google, saw me reading up to 3 posts which all came to the same conclusion.

“Bloggers Blogs Aren’t Exempted From Google’s Duplicate Content Policy”

Below is the method I used to help me keep in line with Google’s policy.

1 : Login in your blogger account, while in your dashboard click on Layout then Edit HTML.

2: PLEASE BACKUP YOUR TEMPLATE BEFORE YOU PROCEED TO THE NEXT STEP! Click on Download Full Template.

3 : Go to your template code and scroll till you find and just after that but before <b:skin>

Code :

<!-- Recommended Duplicate Content Cure Code -->
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != "item"'>
<meta content='noindex,follow,noarchive,noodp' name='GOOGLEBOT'/>
<meta content='noindex,follow,noarchive,noodp' name='SLURP'/>
<meta content='noindex,follow,noarchive,noodp' name='MSNBOT'/>
<meta content='noindex,follow,noarchive,noodp' name='TEOMA'/>
<meta content='noindex,follow,noarchive,noodp' name='ROBOTS'/>
<b:else/>
<meta content='index,follow,noodp' name='GOOGLEBOT'/>
<meta content='index,follow,noodp' name='SLURP'/>
<meta content='index,follow,noodp' name='MSNBOT'/>

</b:if>
