Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Dr. Peter, Thanks for the useful insight, right now google web master tool shows that 82,563 pages on our website are in google's index, but sadly none are getting any direct traffic from google search results. We are "design your own dress company" so each "product" can have 1000s of variations, most are similar to google, but not to the end-user. So I think what you are saying is that consolidating all variations of 1 product to 1 page could result in more power on the single product page. Can you please confirm?

I added important categories to the footer of our website just 2 weeks back and started seeing new traffic instantly. I think you should keep footer links.

Hmmm.. I think its the IP address of your computer i.e. goto http://whatismyipaddress.com/  and get your IP address and use it below.

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} !^123.45.67.8
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I am sorry, not much of an Apache expert.

You can demote up to 100 URLs, and demotions are effective for 90 days from your most recent visit to the Sitelinks page in Webmaster Tools.

If I were you, then on http://sandbox.vietnamvisacorp.com/  I would put a 301 redirect based on ip address on all pages.

This will redirect all users to http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/ based on ip address, i.e. if IP address = your ip then don't redirect otherwise redirect.

If you are webmaster, you can demote the unwanted content using google web master tools.

Configuration -> Sitelinks-> Demote this sitelink URL:

And obviously, keep updating robots.txt moving forward.

Can you please elaborate? Is the HTML stored in MS Access? what is the programming language, server, etc.

Thanks Eyepaq. I can keep it as is, but I will try to make them more brown or black by adding brown or black to the The Details and the The Silhouette.

Thanks. I will try to make them more unique.

Thanks for the Reply Bryan. I have used canonical links at other places on the website, where the pages are same.

I want to make the 2 pages so that I can attract users both user searching for black belt as well as brown bag. Would adding canonical links help me in doing that, or am I thinking of this in the wrong way?

Hello SEO Experts,

I am a developer at www.bowanddrape.com and we are working on improving the SEO of the website. The SEOMoz Crawl Diagnostics Summary shows that following 2 URL have duplicate content.

http://www.bowanddrape.com/clothing/Tan+Accessories+Calfskin+Belt/50_5142

http://www.bowanddrape.com/clothing/Black+Accessories+Calfskin+Belt/50_5143

Can you please suggest me ways to fix this problem?

Is the duplicate content error because of same "The Details", "Size Chart" and "The Silhouette" and "You may also like" ?

Thanks,

Chirag
