Topic summary

A Shopify store owner is experiencing duplicate SEO title tags for two URLs (/collections/all-products and /collections/all) that redirect to the same page, flagged by SEMRush as an SEO error.

Root Cause:

  • Two similar collections may be incorrectly configured
  • Missing or improperly coded meta title and description tags in the theme files
  • Backend source code shows no precise meta title/description, making it difficult for search engines to index properly

Proposed Solutions:

  • Consolidate collections: Remove one collection and set up a permanent redirect to the other if they serve the same purpose
  • Edit unique SEO titles: Modify title tags in Shopify admin under each collection’s ‘Search engine listing preview’ section
  • Check theme.liquid file: Verify that proper meta title and description code exists and hasn’t been modified or commented out by apps
  • Use SEO automation tools: Consider apps that can audit and bulk-update meta tags across the store

The discussion remains open with technical guidance provided, including code snippets showing the expected meta tag structure in Shopify’s theme files.

Hey guys,

I am currently addressing SEO on our website: mindsightnow.com

The main issue I want to address is duplicate SEO title tags. I am using SEMRush to show me some of the SEO errors on our website that need fixing. This error is coming up for two of our web pages, /collections/all-products and /collections/all, where they are both redirecting to the same page.

Can someone please help explain how to fix this issue and why/how two redirects were created for one page.

Thanks in advance for any help :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @Mindsight ,

Duplicate title tags can negatively impact your SEO as they may confuse search engines about which page to prioritize. The issue you’re facing with /collections/all-products and /collections/all likely stems from having two separate collections that are too similar or incorrectly set up to redirect to the same content.

To resolve this, you can:

  • Ensure that each collection has a unique purpose and content. If they are meant to be the same, consider removing one and redirecting it permanently to the other.
  • Modify the SEO title tags to be unique for each page. This can be done in the Shopify admin by going to the collections and editing the SEO parameters in the ‘Search engine listing preview’ section.

SEOPro can help by automating the SEO audit process for your products and collections. It provides recommendations to fix issues like duplicate title tags and can update SEO meta titles and descriptions in bulk. This can be incredibly useful to ensure consistency and SEO best practices across your entire store.

Hi @Mindsight

About your mentioned duplicated SEO title tags issue, after checking your web page from one of the URLs shared in the screenshot, https://mindsightnow.com/collections/all, I can search out two titles indeed and notice that there is no precise meta title and meta description displaying on the backend source code page. Therefore, it will add difficulties for search engines to know your page title and descriptions smoothly.

Could you please help check from Shopify background by accessing theme.liquid file to see if the original meta title and meta description codes exist like this below. If not, then it has been modified or commented by other APPs. By reverting to original meta title and description code contents, this issue shall be resolved.

    {% endif %}
