URL Issues .com & .com/index.html

Hi There,

For my Website

http://www.seofreelancing.com
&
http://www.seofreelancing.com/index.html

Both resolve to the same page. I don't want this happening as Search engines might see this as a potential duplicate content Issue.

How do I prevent this.

Awaiting your help,
Hemanth

 

It is ok and google won't consider it as a potential duplicate page, but you can write a 301 rule and redirect http://www.seofreelancing.com/index.html to http://www.seofreelancing.com.

It is just a canonical issues you have to do some changes in your in your programming to resolve this issue.

 

301 redirect would help you to avoid this issue.

 

it would be better put a redirect for home page index.html.

 

either use 301 redirect or block this URl in robots.txt file.

 

Google will definitely consider it as duplicate page. You should redirect (301) /index.html to / to resolve this issue. If you can't make a redirect simply add a canonical tag on the page.

 

it should't be block, if we blocked the entire homepage will be blocked. Only one solution to put 301 redirect. Any advices paste here.

 

dear 301 redirect through redirect index.html to domain.html

 

You can also use page relation meta tag .....

 

i dont wanna make a new thread in how many hours does the nameserver changes?

 

@manivannang,

It takes 2 to 24 hours..

 

You must have to implement 301 redirects if you have Linux server if you have Windows Server then you can do it with config.sys file. Do it ASAP. It will surely potential Duplicate content issue. Google Panda is about to come. Wish you Good Luck.
