Major SEO Problem!!!!!!!!!


Recommended Posts

In my store, I have categories that may have 50 or so items, a reasonable amount. However, all of the pages in each category have exactly the same meta keywords, meta description, meta title, and the same category description. I place about 10 products per page, so that means for my category, I have 5 pages that are almost identical. In addition, all of the category pages after the first one do not have a search engine friendly link. For example, my 5 category pages are:

http://webstore.com/5-category-url
http://webstore.com/5-category-url?p=2
http://webstore.com/5-category-url?p=3
http://webstore.com/5-category-url?p=4
http://webstore.com/5-category-url?p=5

Personally, I'm not as concerned about the search engine friendliness of the urls, as I am about all the meta tags and category descriptions being identical. Is there a way to fix this? I would rather have meta tags for the first category page being the ones I specified, and leaving the remaining ones empty so that the search engines can fill it in. At least these other pages would be unique.

I'm not knocking Prestashop, I think it's a fabulous e-commerce program, but I would really like to fix this problem. At the very least, is there a way to change the source code so that the meta tags are left empy for the remaining category pages? Is there someone who can help with this? Please!!

I found the solution, go to webmaster tools - site conf- settings - Parameter handling. Then add 2 paramaters, n and p and set them both to 'ignore'.

I haven't seen the results yet but it is supposed to work according to the google help.
