Pagination and seo duplicate content

It depends on how you’re doing your titles/meta descriptions, etc… Here’s an example of what I do:

<title>{if layout:title != ''}{layout:title}{/if}{if layout:title_two != ''} - {layout:title_two}{/if}</title>

Then in my paginated template I call the template layout like this:

{layout="site/.html-layout" title="News"]

And then for the pagination:

{paginate}
{if current_page != '1'}
{layout:set name="title_two"}Page {current_page}{/layout:set}
{/if}

This produces a title like “News - Page 2”

Hi Pedro,

Thank you for your reply. I will try that code.

Pedro,

Do you know any other way to do anything similar with no layout usage?

Google isn’t going to ding you for content that appears duplicated from pagination links:
