    How can I see if I have duplicate content into my website? I know I don't have duplicate content but I want to see how google indexed my website and if google found any duplicate content or not. Is it possible? I accessed google webmaster tools but It show me only duplicate title, duplicate description..but not duplicate content!

    Can someone help me?

    Just copy some of the content of your page and search on google, if you see the same contents on the search results then your content is duplicate.

    You can use copyscape and google to check for duplicate content.

    Just a heads up - in response to the OP.

    Correct me if I've misunderstood.

    "I accessed google webmaster tools but It show me only duplicate title, duplicate description..but not duplicate content!" If there are any duplicate title tags, or meta descriptions - I would fix that, pronto.

    Further to that point, if there are duplicate TTs and duplicate MDs pointed out by Google Webmaster Tools wouldn't that hint towards places with duplicate content?

    Also - copyscape, in the capacity you're hoping to use it, is only available in the premium version.

    Copyscape is the best solution. This will help you to see do you have the duplicated content on your site and on what sites this content could be seen.

    It's free. Just type copyscape.com and it will open. But I think you are limited by 10-20 searches for each domain per month.

    Haha, that is the easiest way to go.
    There are also many online tools which could help you identify duplicate content.

    Has your site got a search function - if it does then you can search for the content within your site.

    Better Use Copyescape just copy of the url and past it in Copyescape and you can see if your content matching with any other site or not. It's world’s No. 1 Cop[y Content checker

    To check the duplicate content there is a software named Copyscape. You can paste the content to be checked in the search box, it will show whether it is duplicate or not along with the source site.
