What does "Pages competing with each other" mean?

When two or more of your pages answer the same search, Google has to guess which one to show. Often it shows neither as high as one strong page would be. This is sometimes called keyword cannibalisation.

How SEOmise spots it

For each search you track, SEOmise looks for:

• two of your pages seen together in the same results;
• Google switching between your pages from one position check to the next;
• several of your pages shown for the search in Search Console;
• more than one page chosen as the main page for the search.

Each search is marked Clear signs or Possible, and lists your pages with what was seen, their position and how often Google showed them (from Search Console, when it is connected).

What to do

1. Choose the one page that should rank for the search, usually the most complete one.
2. If two pages say the same thing, join them into one and redirect the other address to it.
3. Point your own links to the chosen page, and make sure its "main version" tag (canonical) points to itself.
4. Give the other page a different focus if it should stay.

The page updates after the next position check and Search Console import. With nothing to report it says so.
