Need help fixing a duplicate content issue for my website. The moz crawl is show OMG my website with https:// and https://www. But I have never used the url https:// so I don’t understand why moz is showing this

Moz is showing my url with two different starts. Https:// and then the one I use https://www. The problem is I don’t think I have ever used the url without the www. at the start. How do I fix this?

Hi there,
Upon checking your site I see that you have two versions of your site available:
www. Bilstonplumbingandheating.co.uk
Bilstonplumbingandheating.co.uk
You should get in touch with your hosting provider and ask them to set up 301 redirect on the server level.
You should redirect
https://www. Bilstonplumbingandheating.co.uk ->https://Bilstonplumbingandheating.co.uk

Thanks for the response. my website is Bilstonplumbingandheating.co.uk
moz Also shows the https:// version has a better page authority than https://www.

The problem is that google is probably indexing the 2. You can correct that all accesses through https://www redirect you to https://. If you are being indexed by both, you will have a duplicate content problem. We do not know which is your website to investigate further ..
greetings

Many Duplicate Content Flags
Not sure about you all, but I’m loving the new Moz Site Crawler. However, I was noticing that it is identifying a huge amount of pages as duplicate content. There are about 30,000 pages in this website, with that said we’ve had to make many templates to make the site scalable. Additionally a url rule was lost which caused a significant amount of duplicate pages to be created. I am working through using the moz crawl tool to identify duplicate pages but noticing many pages under “Affected Pages,” are actually unique content pages with initial content that is duplicate. I read that Moz flags any pages with 90% or more content overlapping content or code. My theory for this is that some templates that are too similar, to the point that Moz reads them as duplicative. Has this happened for anyone else? In addition, if Moz is flagging these similar pages as duplicate content, do we surmise that Google bots are having the same issue? We have seen issues with rankings as it pertains to the actual duplicate pages but hadn't experienced issues across the unique pages, they are hyperlocal pages so we are able to see rankings quite easily.

Dupe content report showing in 'Errors' section when surely should be in 'Warnings' section ?
Why is the dupe content info showing in errors and not warnings ? Since if dupe content can get your site penalised (as per Panda) or worse banned, surely it should be in that section of reports ? Cheers
