    Hi,
    You have to solve canonical problem through .htaccess file.
    Code:
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com
    RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
    RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index.php
    RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
    Code (markup):
    Put your URL in the place of example and put it at .htaccess file.

    Yes, your site has canonical problem. If you do 301 redirect, your site does not have canonical problem.And Google understand that a unique site.

    All the URl's must redirest to single Url otherwise search engines must be unsure URL is correct to index.

    Here is a nice post about canonicalization. I usually refer people to it when they have question.
    But basically you can just redirect example.com to www.example.com, or the other way round - your choice.

    Hey,
    Thanks for sharing that I've been going crazy the past few days trying to figure out how to redirect the www version of my site to the mysite.com version. Now I just have to implement and test.
