Hello,
I´ve got a couple of wordpress blogs that I´ve been keeping for some time now (one is 1year+ and the other one about 8 months).Both sites have a lot of indexed pages,but for some reason google has been indexing them as www.domain.com/post/feed/ instead of just www.domain.com/post and they are all supplemental. I´m talking about 500 indexed /feed pages.
Most of the traffic coming in from google is now coming in to these /feed urls and that´s no good since that is just an xml feed and they just leave.

Any ideas about what might be going on?
Thanks!

I have a client that has this problem. Were you involved in any ad networks like the digitalpoint coop or linkvault? Because it seems that the pages that received the penalty were the pages with the network code on them. The feeds did not have the code.

So it appears that google was penalizing pages rather than the site as a whole.

I suggest that you submit a new sitemap and file a reinclusion request.

I´ve never been part of any link coop, just did some link exchanges with a couple of sites, nothing else.
I found some other people with the same problem in another forum and one of them told me he solved the problem with a robots.txt that disallows */feed URLs.
That works for googlebot but I just noticed Yahoo is also indexing the /feed and /trackback URLs and I don´t know if slurp follows wildcards in robots.txt.

Google thinks that www.domain.com/post/feed/ is more important and there must be lot of pages linking to it ... instead of www.domain.com/post/feed/. I am assuming that all tour all 500 pages might be linking to that feed. As for supplemtal results, in most cases, if your pages doesnot have enough incoming links, traffic and hpw frequently the site is being updated i.e freshness of the content ... they are put into supplemtal results ... the only thing I would recommend woud be that you get more incoming links ...
