Hello, I am using wordpress from quite some time and now i think that it may create a copied content problem. I just wanted to know the opinion of others regarding this matter. For example i made post titled "Test Post" on www.blog.com . I have set in my wordpress options to display only one post on homepage. So by default "Test Post" will be displayed on homepage as well as http://www.blog.com/test-post/ also. Arent both of these pages exact duplicate of each other. regards aditya
To answer in long verse. No. Google will not penalise you for this. It's a natural part of a blog. Col
True, but it can be a pain in the ass when you have 4 different url's for one page, trust me it sent me crazy before. Check out; http://fucoder.com/code/permalink-redirect/ Also i have RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domainl.com/$1 [R=301,L] # If requested resource does not exist as a file RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f # and does not end with a period followed by a filetype RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !..+$ # and does not end with a slash RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/$ # then add a trailing slash and redirect RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.com/$1/ [R=301,L] Code (markup): So with that, if you try going to http://domain.com it redirects to http://www.domain.com etc etc
Well yes i see that it was blogged by Jim Westergren also earlier. One blog post seems to have 4 different urls like - http://www.blog.com/blog-post http://www.blog.com/blog-post/ http://blog.com/blog-post http://blog.com/blog-post/ All of them are looked at as different posts. And PR is also distributed. regards Aditya
google shouldn't penalise you on tat. as it's still the same content from ya site. and besides, it's how wordpress categories it anyway. no worries about it aditya!
