      I am getting a duplicate content error for the following pages:

      http://www.bluelinkerp.com/products/accounting/index.asp

      http://www.bluelinkerp.com/products/accounting/

      But, of course, the 2nd link is just an automatic redirect to the index file, is it not?

      Why is it thinking it is a different URL?

      See image.

        There are actually no redirects in place, so SEOMoz thinks they are both separate links.

        If you redirect one of the pages to the other like you said, the duplicate content error will disappear.

        You can check redirects using this tool: http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/

          I figured it out. Turns out there were old pages that used the improper URL. They were very difficult to find haha
