I'm trying to get a parent category page on my wordpress site ranked. It's an e-store based off of the auto e-store plugin (sold here as WSO). I believe it's a duplicate content issue, but I could be wrong. I have many pages already indexed, so I know that's not the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Do you have other parent category pages indexed already?

        Google indexes duplicate content all the time.
        And they have no problem doing so.

        Whatever main url your blog is, get that indexed. Build backlinks
        to it.

        Then, as you build more backlinks, google will crawl your
        site more thoroughly and often. Don't expect miracles
        over night.

          My main url is indexed...and I'm pretty sure google is crawling my site as I have over 120+ pages indexed.

          I'm not expecting a miracle at all. If anyone could shed more light on this it'd be greatly appreciated.

    With regards to SEO, does optimising you parent pages in Word Press help to increase ranking at all?

    Any advice will be appreciated.
