I am developing a website.

Ex URL : domain.com/index.php?p=love

I have rewrite above URL as the following URL using htaccess file.

Ex URL2 : domain.com/love

So both pages have same content. Does Google think it is duplicate content?

  • If you 301 redirect it, Google will only pay attention to the final destination URL and not index the other. Any PR will also go to the final URL.

  • NO ! It's not plagiarism, just because you have given a link to the main destination, the current link just came out like sample post and your saying go to the main source to see the content.
  • Of course google thinks it's duplicate content?
    Do they care? No.

    Plagiarism? What does this have to do with plagiarism?

    Here's a BIG tip. Develop a site. That is, actually DEVELOP A SITE!

    Stop relying on WP. It's tragic how many problems can be solved
    by ditching WP.

    301 was not for cleaning up WP or any other inane CMS.

  • You should be fine, but in general the 301 redirect would be the better way to do it. You could also use a canonical tag to be safe. Not sure how many URL's you're working with, but you could probably run a script to automate the tags.
