Ignore paginated URLs for duplicate filters
Configuration > Spider > Advanced > Ignore Paginated URLs for Duplicate Filters
When enabled, URLs with rel=”prev” in the sequence will not be considered for ‘Duplicate’ filters under Page Titles, Meta Description, Meta Keywords, H1 and H2 tabs. Only the first URL in the paginated sequence, with a rel=”next” attribute will be considered.
This means paginated URLs won’t be considered as having a ‘Duplicate’ page title with the first page in the series for example. It’s normal and expected behaviour and hence, this configuration means this will not be flagged as an issue.
