Social: Duplicate OG Title

back to issues overview

Duplicate OG Title

Pages that have duplicate OG title tags. It’s useful to have distinct and unique OG titles for every page relating to their content.

If every page has the same page title, then it can make it more challenging for users to understand one page from another.

What Triggers This Issue

This issue is triggered when two or more pages have the same og:title content.

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
....
<property name="og:title" content="10 of the best Red Widgets."/>
...
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>

Was on multiple pages https://www.example.com/red-widgets/ and https://www.example.com/blue-widgets/.

How To Fix

Update duplicate OG titles as necessary, so each page contains a unique and descriptive title for users.

If these are duplicate pages, then fix the duplicated pages by linking to a single version, and redirect or use canonicals where appropriate.
