What is the Pagination Loop?
A pagination loop happens when a website shows the same content on different pages, regardless of changes in URL parameters. For example, Page 1 and Page 2 display the same articles, products, or other information.
This usually happens because of a problem with how the website adds page numbers or other pagination controls. So going to the next page doesn't actually take you to new content.
Pagination loops can hurt a website's search engine ranking because search engines see it as duplicate content.
It also makes navigation frustrating for visitors if clicking "Next Page" takes them in circles.
To check if your site has a pagination loop, open up different pages and see if the content stays the same.
The underlying HTML code may also show the same content repeating. Fixing the pagination code is usually needed to resolve the issue.
