I think what you need will require some custom coding and a lot of thought around arhitecture of this solution (how to decide whether to implement canonical or not – what is similar enough) and so on…

Sounds easy but if you’re on WordPress – this has to be automated somehow right?

Plus there is no way to predict what 2-3 tag pages will, in time be identical…

Alex, if these tags have the same or very similar content, choose one of them to be the original and point other tags to that one.

I have a question about this duplicate content issue: what if you have tags and 2 or more tags have the same articles.

What/where will the rel=canonical point for a url that look like this: http://www.site.com/tag/sometag and http://www.site.com/tag/someothertag and http://www.site.com/tag/sometag2

I understand perfectly how this rel=canonical works on pages/posts and so on but i have a hard time figure it out on tag pages…

Thanks,
Alex

Nice plugin! At the time this post was written there were no WordPress plugins that did such thing.

Or try a plugin: Canonical URL Wordpress Plugin.
