    Ok, I am very upset, this site has come on to the scene not to long ago. Makes it into the top 10 on a keyword I have been working on my whole sites life. And it comes into the picture and ranks at #5.

    I check the rankings today, and it has a 2nd result! Both go to EXACTLY the same page just adds a stupid "?from_blog=1" to the end which seemingly makes it no different.

    http://www.google.com/search?q=free+games&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS247US247

    Very upsetting from someone who is working their way up was #8 now i'm #9 because of this site.

    Also, the site in question is ---- www.pictogame.com/play/game/

    Thoughts?

    Do I have a question? Have you seen the two links?

    #5 www.pictogame.com/play/game/
    #6 www.pictogame.com/play/game/?from_blog=1
    ^^^Notice how they're exactly the same page?

    Before you start assuming why don't you read my damn post all the way?

    What is your point? It's not hard to rank the same web page with a simple redirect twice, it just gets removed from the index when discovered. This has been addressed numorous times on DP, perhapes search the forum before asking a common question ;)

    Doug, I have seen this kind of thing in Google before. However, during the next update, one of those 2 links should be gone from the results.
