Hi Already there is some equity for duplicate links, wht is going to happen?

Actually, you have just one option to not index them - the second one. The first will, still keep them in index if google can find them. I currently have roughly 27k URLs indexed that were blocked via robots.txt from the start (generated with a time-based parameter; yeah: ouch.).

Those results do not usually appear in "normal" search but can be forced (currently you may try site:grimoires.de inurl:fakechecknr and showing skipped results to see the effect of that). So basically I'd advise against using robots.txt - it does not prevent indexing, only the visiting/reading of that page.

Hi Abdul,

Yes, it is case sensitive.

Remember that you must not have many pages like that. 
The first thing you should do is elimiate those duplicate pages.

In the case you can´t eliminate them, you have 2 way to ask the google bot not to index them:
1- By robots.txt with a 'Disallow:' instruction
2- By a meta tag with a_ '' _in the

Hope it helps.
