My report is showing duplicate titles.. for http://www.mysite.com/ & http://mysite.com

[Fridaythe15th]

Is this because I setup my campaign wrong in seo moz or should I have my site setup differently to forward all traffic without the www to the www version? Or vise versa?

Thanks for any advice!

My host doesn't give me iis access but said they would set them up for me if I give them a list. I think it is time to change hosts!

Thanks for your advice!

If you have a cpanel access, can you get to IIS?

This is a walk-through copied while I was looking for answers. I don't have a lot of experience with Windows hosting so I hope it helps. As always, have backups when possible and if this doesn't make sense, it may be best to contact the host (or tell us who the host is so we can find an exact solution.)

1. In internet services manager, right click on the file or folder you wish to redirect.
2. Select "a redirection to a URL".
3. Enter the redirection page.
4. Check "The exact url entered above", and the "A permanent redirection for this resource".
5. Click "Apply".

thanks for the clarification on that... this website is hosted on Windows... which does not allow you to use the .htaccess file for redirects... do you guys know a good alternative for windows?  Thanks for any suggestions.

Claim them meaning add both to your Webmasters Tools. Then 1) set a preferred domain and 2) add rel=canonical tags.  Then 3) a redirect would be good to finish it.

I think in this case 301 redirection would be good option. Why can't you permanently redirect non-www version to WWW or WWW to non-www. ( Before doing redirection please check domain authority & page authority. Do redirection on page having more domain & page authority.)

Thanks... when you say "claim" do you mean under the "preferred domain" ?  I'm in Google Webmaster Tools > Settings?

Thanks!

You should claim both www and non-www in Webmasters Tools then choose one.  Use that one on your moz campaign, as well as when linkbuilding online.  That will give you the most consistent results.

Search rel=canonical and I'm sure you can find a lot of info on how to set it up appropriately.
