Canonical URL Tag
-
Hi,
I have two pages that are identical on my site:
http://www.absolutepower.nl/creatine-monohydraat
and
http://www.absolutepower.nl/CREATINE/creatine-monohydraat
Should I use the canonical URL tag in this case?
Thanks,
Jasper

Ideally you should remove one and 301 redirect it to the other. If you need to keep both pages on your site, then definitely use the canonical tag.
As an aside, I'd also configure your server to fix your URLs and remove the capital letters - configure your htaccess file on your apache server to automatically redirect capital letters to lowercase, thereby avoiding further canonical issues.
