I have a site I have just started doing SEO on and have a few issues highlighted in Google Webmaster Tools that i'm not sure about.

Duplicate title tags showing for the homepage;
/
/?autoplay=0
/?c=1&s=-3
How do I remove these from displaying?

and

/example/example/example/
/example/example/example

displaying the same page but one just with / on the end
#duplicate #tags #title

    I assume you are using wordpress.

    Which is why my first, best, and what should be ONLY, solution, is to ditch wordpress. The thing is just evil and should be banned.

    There are various plugins to solve the problem.

    I can also assume it's no big deal.

    Now, if you don't know why it's probably happening, one more reason why I despise WP.

    If all you do is buy a domain, install WP, then you people get all the problems that come with not only the idiotic, bloated, silly, wordpress, but the problems caused by a lack of knowledge.

      Thanks Paul,

      No not WP! it's built on Silverstripe. I haven't had any problems like this with WP.

    Some times this kind of urls appears just due to some plugins which you have installed. So, disable one at a time and see for which one its happening.

    Wordpress is the site where you get any solution to install a plugin. But you have choose best plugin. So, before install any plugin give importance on plugins popularity and recommendation.

    Is the problem actually the trailing slash (/) or are you running https on the site which can cause duplicate page issues?

      No not running https. Not sure if the problem is the trailing slash or if it's even a problem?

    The Trailing Problem comes NOT from Wordpress, its a Plugin Problem. From the Plugin Wordpress SEO by YOAST, look at his page, all right like it must be, but the Wordpress SEO by YOAST Plugin, do this. Its a great Plugin, but don´t know why this S..t is done? To sell more Gold REviews? But even in Wordpress SEO by YOAST you can fix this by hand

    Are you using Wordpress? Set your permalink to use custom permalink %postname%

    Or just edit your .htaccess file
