Strange URL resulting a page
-
Hi, my friend has asked me to take a look at his site. I only know the basics of SEO so I'm learning along the way. He has some duplicate title errors showing in Moz, resulting to this page:
This URL shows the 'About' page. I have tonnes of pages like this showing with really long URLs that result an actual page.
Has anyone seen something like this before? I don't have a clue how this is showing the about page
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
James

The page likely has a relative link that is incorrectly coded.
http://www.domain.com/about/money-transfers/
probably has a link like...
something instead of something
because of this, the bot then visits /about/money-transfers/money-transfers, where it finds the same link.
Your CMS also likely always looks at the last or first directory to determine the page, which then causes it to render a 200OK over and over again.
Fix the link and you should be good.

Hi there.
Looks like redirect (rewrite rule) loop. Check your htaccess.
