I run a large WordPress directory site with thousands of city pages. We recently changed URL structure and I’m seeing technical SEO issues in the <head> such as incorrect canonicals and rel="next" / pagination pointing to an old URL version (state-folder path). I need an experienced WordPress dev who understands Yoast + technical SEO to make the site output ONE correct primary URL version everywhere. Main goals: Fix canonical tags so they always match the correct primary URL structure (no duplicate URL versions). Fix pagination URLs (rel=next/prev, /page/2/) so they follow the correct base URL version. Ensure old URL versions 301 redirect to the new primary version (no 200/indexable duplicates). Confirm internal links/site output is consistent (Yoast OG/Twitter URL should match primary too). Provide a quick validation checklist (what to test + examples). Deliverables: Working fix on staging or live (depending on your workflow) Exact explanation of what changed (plugin settings vs theme functions vs filters) Redirect rules (if needed) Proof tests: 5 example city pages showing correct: rel=canonical rel=next/prev correct 301 behavior old → new consistent OG URL Tech stack: WordPress Yoast SEO plugin Cloudflare (cache) Custom post type / taxonomy archives / directory templates (likely) Notes: Do NOT “band-aid” with random plugins. I want the correct root fix (rewrite rules / Yoast filters / template logic). You must be comfortable flushing permalinks, managing cache properly, and testing with View Source + headers. To apply, answer: Have you fixed canonical/pagination issues on WP/Yoast before? Give 1 example. What’s your approach to ensure old URLs don’t stay indexable? Can you work with Cloudflare caching + WP caching safely? Budget: Fixed price or hourly — propose your rate based on scope after you review 2–3 sample URLs.

As a seasoned SEO specialist and WordPress developer, I understand the intricacies of technical SEO and how to optimize websites to deliver the desired results. In fact, working with Yoast and similar SEO plugins is part of my daily routine.

Instead of relying on "band-aid" solutions like plugins, I dive deep into root fixes by employing techniques like rewrite rules, Yoast filters, and comprehensive template logics.

This allows me to work with them safely and make sure the site delivers optimal performance after my fixes.

Hello, I've reviewed your brief: a large adult WordPress directory with thousands of city pages where a recent URL structure change left incorrect canonicals and rel="next"/pagination pointing to old state-folder paths. I will deliver a root, non-“band‑aid” fix by auditing sample URLs, correcting Yoast canonical output via Yoast filters or theme hooks, fixing pagination/template logic and rewrite rules, and adding targeted 301 redirects for old → new URLs. I will flush permalinks, purge Cloudflare and WP caches, and validate via View Source + header checks. To start I need 2–3 sample city URLs and staging access (preferred) or WP admin + Cloudflare API key. I will implement on staging, provide exact changes (plugin settings vs theme functions/filters), redirect rules, and proof tests for 5 pages plus a validation checklist. Typical turnaround: 2 days for audit + fix and testing. Can you share 2–3 sample city URLs (one showing the old state-folder format and one the expected new URL) and confirm whether you prefer changes on staging or live? Best regards,
