Hello guys, do you think index category and pages is safe, or will be a problem for duplicated content? I have one category in my websites and contain only the posts preview (like the homepage), and also page1/page2/page3 etc. contain only the posts preview, do you think is better to noindex this kind of content with Yoast?
 
if you want to rank those pages then yes you should index them, for me i also index my categories, i would say it depends on your type of site, some ppl also noindex their categories for a reason
and also page1/page2/page3 etc
i noindex this, there is a setting to noindex this "next pages" in yoast but i forgot which one, since im using rankmath now

Indexing category and page previews may not be a significant issue when it is for duplicate content. Yes, however to be cautious use tools like yoast to mark the No Index option on these pages if you feel it is necessary.
 
Use noindex for category and pagination pages with duplicate content to avoid SEO issues
 
Actually It's depends on your website niches. If you have e-commerce website you have to index your catagory pages.
