Please look at this : http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/duplicate-content

,"If so you could identify the structure of the url and instruct your sitemap generator program to ignore the undesirable url"
How can I do that?
-
Are you referring to duplicate page content? if so this could be down to the design template of your site. i.e same header, sidebar, footer on each page e.c.t .if so I would not worry to much about it as long as the main content is different on each page, I f you are referring to pages that are identical this can be produced by php software creating duplicate pages i.e /page1 could also be /something else, If so you could identify the structure of the url and instruct your sitemap generator program to ignore the undesirable url, or webmaster tools has a section for this also i believe.

1500 pages.
So what can I do about that?

How large is your site?
do a site: search for your site, if you are unaware of duplicate content it could be URLs with parameters appended getting indexed or https pages getting indexed.

I really need some help with Magento and Duplicate Page Content results I;m getting
Hi, We use Magento for our eCommerce platform and I'm getting a number of duplicate page content results. It mainly concerns the duplicate page content errors for our category pages. Firstly It seems like the product type and filter options highlighted in the picture are causing duplicate page content Also one particularity category is getting a lot from duplicate page content errors , http://www.tidy-books.co.uk/shop-all-products I understand that this category page is using duplicate pages of other category pages so I set this to exclude them from the site map but it looks likes its till being picked up? I've attached the csv file showing these errors as well. - > Any help would be massively appreciated Thanks filter.png moz-tidy-books-uk-crawl_issues-01-OCT-2014.csv

Unavoidable duplicate page
Hi, I have an issue where I need to duplicate content on a new site that I am launching. Visitors to the site need to think that product x is part of two different services. e.g. domain.com/service1/product-x domain.com/service2/product-x Re-writing content for product x for each service section is not an option but possibly I could get over that only one product-x page is indexed by search engines. What's the best way to do this? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Stuart

is pointing to the same page that it is already on, is this a problem?
So we have a wordpress site with the all-in-one-seo-pack installed. I have just noticed in our crawl diagnostics that a canonical tag has been put in place on every single one of our pages, but they are all pointing to the pages that they are already on. Is this a problem? Should I be worried about this and delve more deeply to figure out as to why this has happened and get it removed? Thanks
