Identical patterns can be a signal for weak differentiation for many page types Onpage signals are especially valuable when they make search intention, page theme and snippet clearer.
Separate equality within one side from repetition across many sides
The fact that Title and H1 name the same topic on the same page often makes sense. It is rather striking when numerous different sides use the same combination. Therefore, check a group of specific URLs and compare their actual main content.
Example: Recognizing the Result
Illustrative example: Each product page in the title and in the H1 is only called “product”. The problem is the repetition over different products, not the match on a single page.
Limit cause and implement correction
Complete the features that distinguish the respective content, such as product, question or performance. Avoid artificial deviations just for the sake of deviation. After the change, Title and H1 should continue to convey the same expectation. Also, check whether a template overrides the individually maintained value by a global standard.
What makes you recognize a suitable correction
Product name and meaningful distinguishing features from the respective data source. Check several different products for their actual HTML values.
Classification and boundaries
When is this indication not a clear error?

Title and H1 on many pages identical according to CMS and cause

For this error, there is currently no own CMS deepening, because the correction is usually not sufficiently system-specific. Take advantage of the general causes and checks on this page.
