Duplicate content
-
I am getting flagged for duplicate content, SEOmoz is flagging the following as duplicate:
www.adgenerator.co.uk/index.asp
These are obviously meant to be the same path so what measures do I take to let the SE's know that these are to be considered the same page. I have used the canonical meta tag on the Index.asp page.

You could set up a canonical tag to show Google that the urls contain the same page. This would remove the duplicate content issue. For futher advice please browse this link. http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/02/specify-your-canonical.html
-
You could set up a HT access file to eradicate the issue and divert one page to the other

Thanks i understand and have already added the canonical URL to index.asp but the other URL does not exist as a page it is just the root domain so how do I add the Canonical URL to a page that doesnt actually exist
-
Thanks for the link, a little over my head so I will pass on to my developer to have a look at.

This may make it a little easier to carry out.

A 301 redirect to the root domain should do the trick.
