seo - Using noindex and nofollow to avoid duplicate content penalization -
scenario:
i own website original content. support categories use creative commons licensed contents, is, of course, duplicate content.
question:
if want avoid penalization duplicate content, statements true?
- i should mention original author fair human being.
- i must use meta noindex avoid robots fetching content.
- i must use cannonical url metion original content , it's author.
- i don't need use nofollow meta along noindex, because has other purposes.
- i don't have use rel="nofollow" on incoming links inside site point duplicate content, because won't indexed anyways, given noindex meta tag.
i did research , got it. not sure this, , understand before applying @ all.
thank you.
in order avoid penalization duplicate content, can of course use meta noindex , rel="nofollow". here syntax:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
this tells robots not index content of page, and/or not scan links follow.
there 2 important considerations when using robots <meta>
tag:
robots can ignore
<meta>
tag. malware robots scan web security vulnerabilities, , email address harvesters used spammers pay no attention.the nofollow directive applies links on page. it's entirely robot might find same links on other page without nofollow (perhaps on other site), , still arrives @ undesired page. don't confuse nofollow rel="nofollow" link attribute.
