I'm not sure what the "id=" parameter is doing, functionally, but there are many ways to control it, and Robots.txt is probably not your best bet. You could META NOINDEX the duplicates, or you could rel=canonical to the "master" page. It's a complex subject, and I've got a comprehensive post about it here:

Those duplicates can definitely dilute your ranking ability, and even trigger a Panda problem (that could harm your entire site).
I don't believe there's really a sandbox in 2012, in the way we used to mean it. Many sites go out the gate ranking pretty quickly. Sometimes, after an initial grace period (30 days or so?), Google lowers a site's ranking, but that's usually because they re-evaluated the link profile. Large-scale duplication wouldn't cause that. The good news is that, once you clean it up, rankings should gradually improve.

Dear friend!
Thanks you for the support ^^!
My website backlinks are pointed from my another website by the banner at the left hand side bar ( follow link, of course this is also travel website), and i litle is from the forum and blog, the biggest links are from my website ( another site).
So, Should i remove from my another website or from the blog, forum...
Because my another website have index 2000+ so the links are too many.
And with the backlink, what is the most important factors? PA, DA, or link root domain...
Thank you ^^!

Ok so now we know it is due to the Penguin update.
The first step to do will be analyzing every single on of your backlink. Use Webmaster Tools and export all the backlinks that are pointing to your website. Next you will have to check out each single backlinks to see the quality of the link. I like to use the Mozbar addon to quickly check what the MozRank and MozTrust of the page is where the backlinks to your site is located.
Once you got the full list of links you want to have gone, you will first have to manually try and remove the links. This could be relatively easy if the link for example is from a directory where you had to make a profile first in order to create a listing. In that case, you can just delete the listing. Otherwise you will have to email the owner of the website if they could remove your backlink.
Now if, let's say 2-3 weeks have passed and you still haven't heard back of some the webmasters (even though you contacted them), you can go ahead and use the link disavow tool. This tool however has to be used with high care.
Have a read of http://searchengineland.com/google-launches-disavow-links-tool-136826 for an understanding of the tool.
If you don't fully understand the tool, please come back to the SEOMoz forums and ask for help, you need to fully understand how it works.
Good luck and feel free to ask any other questions!

By the sound of you might of gotten a penalty of Google.
I believe it might of been the penguin update.
I had a look at your backlink profile, and out of a total of 2.9k links you have 968 links with the anchor text of "vietnam visa of arrival". This is a clear signal to google that you are trying to manipulate to rank for that keyword.
Did the rankings decreased around the period of April the 24th?

Having duplicate titles will most certainly be effecting your SERP rankings, along with many many others factors of course.
Page titles should be unique on each page, and contain keywords that describe or that are relevant to the page.

Totally confused by titles being too long!
We use a wordpress site and have tried some SEO plug-ins in the past. In the analysis, I am getting more than 2,000 pages have titles that are too long and from the results it looks like it was a result of one of these past SEO plug-ins. Do I need to go through and change all those titles? How bad is it that so many of the old blog posts are too long? Some are too long only in the archive link... So confused and hating the idea of reworking thousands of posts! Thanks y'all!

Titles in google serps incorrect
If you do the following query in google: site:orlandovisiting.com legend sparrow You'll see in the results the title appears as: legend-captain-jack-sparrow-1149.html Where the title tag in the source is: <title>The Legend of Captain Jack Sparrow Opens at Disney’s Hollywood Studiostitle> Eventually it normally rights itself, but does anyone else get this with their sites? Thanks.

Duplicating Keywords in Page Title
Hello All, I am currently trying to establish the TITLE tag of my homepage. I am trying to target 2 terms plus my company name. For example, purposes, the two keywords are: Widget Program Widget Software My company Name is: Widget Direct I originally had the title as: Widget Program | Software | Widget Direct My thought was that I didn't want to repeat the word "Widget" too many times. However, the SEOmoz on-page report card keeps telling me I should have the exact keyword in my title tag. In that case it would make the title: Widget Program | Widget Software | Widget Direct Do you think that is better so that I have each keyword in the title or will that result in a penalty because it looks like I'm stuffing the title with the keyword 'widget'? Any insight is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Duplicate content with same URL?
SEOmoz is saying that I have duplicate content on: http://www.XXXX.com/content.asp?ID=ID http://www.XXXX.com/CONTENT.ASP?ID=ID The only difference I see in the URL is that the "content.asp" is capitalized in the second URL. Should I be worried about this or is this an issue with the SEOmoz crawl? Thanks for any help. Mike

Duplicate Content
Many of the pages on my site are similar in structure/content but not exactly the same. What amount of content should be unique for Google to not consider it duplicate? If it is something like 50% unique would it be preferable to choose one page as the canonical instead of keeping them both as separate pages?

Canonical Link for Duplicate Content
A client of ours uses some unique keyword tracking for their landing pages where they append certain metrics in a query string, and pulls that information out dynamically to learn more about their traffic (kind of like Google's UTM tracking). Non-the-less these query strings are now being indexed as separate pages in Google and Yahoo and are being flagged as duplicate content/title tags by the SEOmoz tools. For example: Base Page: www.domain.com/page.html
Technical SEO | | kchandler
Tracking: www.domain.com/page.html?keyword=keyword#source=source Now both of these are being indexed even though it is only one page. So i suggested placing an canonical link tag in the header point back to the base page to start discrediting the tracking URLs: But this means that the base pages will be pointing to themselves as well, would that be an issue? Is their a better way to solve this issue without removing the query tracking all togther? Thanks - Kyle Chandler0
