Duplicate Page Title
-
First i had a problem with duplicate title errors, almost every page i had was double because my website linked to both www.funky-lama.com and funky-lama.com
I changed this by adding a code to htaccess to redirect everything to www.funky-lama.com, but now my website was crawled again and the errors were actually doubled.
all my pages now have duplicate title errors cause of pages like this
www.funky-lama.com/160-confetti-gitaar.html funky-lama.com/160-confetti-gitaar.html
www.funky-lama.com/1_present-time funky-lama.com/1_present-time
-
thank you
-
Go to web-snifer.net Add http://funky-lama.com And see if the status code is 301 and redirecting to http://www.funky-lama.com I checked it now and the redirection is correct
-
how can i test if it works?
-
If you added this RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^funky-lama.com$ [NC]RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.funky-lama.com/$1 [L,R=301]
try to added it after "RewriteEngine on"

This is the entire code in the htaccess

As Wissam Dandan said, your redirection seems to be not working fine. To redirect to the WWW version, use this instead:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^funky-lama.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.funky-lama.com/$1 [L,R=301]This should resolve the issue.
-
I did a header check on funky-lama.com and its showing a 200 OK . So there is no redirection to the www version.
Please make sure the Code in htaccess is right.
you can paste it here so we can see where the fault is.
Thank you

Hi, We use Magento for our eCommerce platform and I'm getting a number of duplicate page content results. It mainly concerns the duplicate page content errors for our category pages.

Diagnostics say I'm missing Page titles... but I am not?
I've been running a crawl of one of our new site builds for a couple of weeks. The Diagnostics picked up a couple of issues, which was great, but it's saying we're missing Page Titles and Descriptions on pages that we have Page Titles and Descriptions. Anyone come across this before?

Keywords Ranking Dropped from 1st Page to Above 5th Page
Hello, My site URL is http://bit.ly/161NeE and our site was ranked first page for over hundred keywords before March, 30. But all of a sudden, all the keywords on first page dropped to 5th or 6th page. When we search for our site name without ".com", the results appeared on first page are all from other sites. And our page can only be seen on 6th page. We think we have been penalized by Google. But we don't know the exact reason. Can anyone please help? Some extra info on our site: 1. We have been building links by posting blog, articles and PR. All the articles are unique, written by the writers we hire. It has been working fine all the time. We also varied the anchor text a lot. 2. We didn't make any change to the website. But one real problem with our site is that the server is very slow recently and when google crawl our website, many errors were found, mostly 503, 404 errors. And the total number of errors have reach to over 50,000. Do you think this might be a problem for Google not displaying us on first page? Our technicals are working hard to solve server problem. And if it is solved, shall our rankings be back? Please advise. Thanks.
