Joomla! Site Returning 12000+ Duplicate Content Errors! W Image

[brad.s.knutson]

Their permalink structure is awful for SEO.  These pages provide very little use for search engines, and should probably be set to "noindex".

As Charles pointed out, Joomla! is not a great platform for a heavy eCommerce site like this.  I would also suggest Magento (although with it's advantages comes disadvantages - for one it's a processing beast and you'll likely need to upgrade to a better hosting company).

Friendly urls and rewrite are both turned on.

Should the Web company know what SH404sef is?

I agree and that is a downer because then all of that content is no good for seo... Is there a quick way to assign those pages to "noindex"?

Yes, Its one of the most popular Joomla extension

for more info - may refer - http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/site-management/sef

(On the link you sent me) I see the Mijo one which is free and the SH404SEF which is commercial.  Will the Mijo one accomplish the same thing?

[Modi]

yes, but they also have a commercial license version

In joomla - due to high customization and coding support - one prefers the version with enabled support

But the best solution is the SH404sef?  We will try this tomorrow and I will report back on how it works.  Do you have any other advice you can give?
