      Hello,

      Our site thewealthymind(dot)com has a lot of duplicate content. How do you clear up duplicate content when there's a lot of it.

      The owners redid the site several times and didn't update the URLs.

      Thank you.

        Since your site uses Joomla as its CMS, this extension might be useful. I suggest reading through the comments/reviews to determine whether it will work for you.

          Hello,

          Your site is open with or without www and also with index.php so first of all you have to 301 redirect with .htaccess file. It is major problem and you have to solve it. For more information about the duplicate content read this URL it is best source of getting right idea about the duplicate content.

            The canonical issue will be fixed. Thank you.

            I'm still not clear how to find the duplicate content.

            Thanks again.

                Sanket,

                Thanks for the good tools. I'll use them. Actually, the duplicate content is all on our own server. We upgraded our site a couple of times and didn't redirect old pages to new.

                I'm using Google and the command site:thewealthymind(dot)com to find duplicate content. Will that find it all?
