      My Dashboard is giving my lots of warnings for duplicate content but it all seems to have something to do with the www and the slash /

      For example:

      http://www.ebow.ie/

      is seen as having the same duplicate content as

      http:/ebow.ie/

      and

      http://www.ebow.ie

      Alos lots to do with how Wordpress categorizes pages and tags that is driving me bonkers!

      Any help appreciated!

      Dave.

        Hello Dave,

        It's because both the 'www.ebow.ie' and 'ebow.ie' are indexed.  You need to choose either www or non-www version.  For example, if you have an htacess file you would do something like:

        Options +FollowSymLinks
        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteRule (.*) http://www.ebow.ie/$1 [R=301,L]
