Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi,

My problem is this:

SEOmoz tells me I have duplicate content because it is picking up my index page in three different ways:

http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk

http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk/

and

http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk/index.php

Can someone give me some advice as to how I can deal with this issue?

thank you for your time,

Hi,

I am very new to SEOMoz and just getting to know the terms in the thrown up in the results. Can you tell me what domain authority actually is and how can I increase it?

thank you

In my htaccess file at the moment I have:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.php

Do i just add what you have suggested so it looks like this:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.php

RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^web-writer-articles.co.uk RewriteRule (.*) http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

thanks

Hi,

Very new to seomoz but very impressed. First report has shown me that I have duplicate pages. Some seem to be duplicate titles and some were duplicates of pages i found on the server.

however the main problem is it seems to be picking up pages with www and without it which I have a vague idea is a canonical issue.

so it throws up pages like this:

http://web-writer-articles.co.uk

and http://www.web-writer-articles.co.uk

I want it just to pick up pages with www

Firstly should it be picking up both and if not how can I make amendments so that it is only picking up pages which include www ?

thank you for your help,
