That’s why in my WordPress course I covered customised tag pages. Search Google for “i-pet glucose meter” and my tag page beats my dedicated page on that item, so I customised the tag page so it because the sales page for the product.

Joanna – not really. That is my point. No plugin I have seen adequately solved the problem.

Just provide a link to the location on your sever. Its best to zip the files up though because otherwise video and audio could just start playing off your server.

Andy, don’t you think that the canonical feature in wordpress, and also in All In One SEO, effectively solves this duplicate problem? I take your point about tag pages, but even with excerpts a lot of these will rate higher in the SERPs. I’m actually toying with the idea of no following them, but then all that juice is wasted. Personally, like you I always specify excerpts wherever possible, but mainly for usability reasons.

On a similar tack, do you make use of the canonical tag outside of WordPress much?

Best wishes from a rainy but warm Sydney,
