Technical Duplicate Fields

📘 Field descriptions for Botify's technical duplicate page detection, which identifies exact duplicates, near-duplicates, and pages sharing identical metadata such as titles or meta descriptions.

Overview

Technical Duplicate fields identify pages with content or metadata that is identical or nearly identical to other pages on your site. Duplicate content can dilute crawl budget, split link equity, and create indexability issues. Botify detects both exact duplicates (identical body content), near-duplicates (high content similarity), and pages sharing duplicate titles or meta descriptions.
