About this issue: Our crawler reports pages that have duplicate meta descriptions only if they are exact matches. A < meta description >tag is a short summary of a webpage’s content that helps search engines understand what the page is about and can be shown to users in search results. Duplicate meta descriptions on dierent pages mean a lost opportunity to use more relevant keywords. Also, duplicate meta descriptions make it dicult for search engines and users to dierentiate between dierent webpages. It is better to have no meta description at all than to have a duplicate one. How to x: Provide a unique, relevant meta description for each of your webpages. For information on how to create eective meta descriptions, please see this Google article: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35624

Webpages are considered duplicates if their content is 85% identical.
Having duplicate content may significantly affect your SEO performance.
First of all, Google will typically show only one duplicate page, filtering other instances out of its index and search results, and this page may not be the one you want to rank.
In some cases, search engines may consider duplicate pages as an attempt to manipulate search engine rankings and, as a result, your website may be downgraded or even banned from search results.
Moreover, duplicate pages may dilute your link profile.

Whether you manage a single local listing or hundreds, the consistency of your NAP data across the web can either help grow your business, or serve as a barrier to customer discovery. Google uses the net of all listings to determine whether or not you’re a reliable source in local listings and map-pack search.

A local citation is any online mention of the name, address, and phone number of a local business. Citations help Internet users to discover local businesses and can also impact local search engine rankings. Specifically, having the right basic citationscan help you rank accurately on Google Maps.

Oh no, that’s not the look you’re going for online. When multiple directories report different names, phone numbers, or addresses online – users get confused but so do search engines. Therefore, the net result of inconsistent or wrong listings hurt your map and organic listings.
