Sanket,
Great links, thank you for posting them.
Update The weekly web crawler diagnostics report showed a decrease in total errors found. Looks like the 301 redirect worked. Thanks guys!

Zach,
You are absolutely right about the CMS plugins, they really do have a mind of their own. Especially the plugins for Joomla.
Thank you for your reply, I am much relieved now....whew. The website is due for another web crawl, hopefully the errors will decrease... good grief.

To 301 redirect or not to 301 redirect? duplicate content problem www.domain.com and www.domain.com/en/posted in Technical SEO
Hello,
If your website is getting flagged for duplicate content from your main domain www.domain.com and your multilingual english domain www.domain.com/en/ is it wise to 301 redirect the english multilingual website to the main site? Please advise.
We've recently installed the joomish component to one of our joomla websites in an effort to streamline a spanish translation of the website. The translation was a success and the new spanish webpages were indexed but unfortunately one of the web developers enabled the english part of the component and some english webpages were also indexed under the multilingual english domain www.domain.com/en/ and that flagged us for duplicate content.
I added a 301 redirect to redirect all visitors from the www.domain/en/ webpages to the main www.domain.com/ webpages. But is that the proper way of handling this problem? Please advise.
