1.html - duplicate problem?

Submitted by paul30 on Fri, 2008-09-19 19:30 in

Hello everybody, just a quick question when there are lots of products in Category or Brand or the Regular Search mode pages, the first page actually has 2 addresses:

/category/xxx/
/category/xxx/.1html - for brand and category mode

and

search.php?q=zoom
search.php?q=xxx&page=1

Did anyone experience problems of "duplicate pages" because of this??

Thanks a lot.
Pasha

Hi Pasha,

I've not known it to be a problem but I accept your point. In fact, I just did a test on Google, and their navigation operates in the same way - no page parameter (they call it "start") for page 1, but if you go to page 2 and then back to page 1 you will see "start=0" in the URL.

I also wouldn't worry too much as they are used to handling duplicate versions of a site's index page; and I would almost guarantee that this would be handled under the same logic...

Cheers,
David.
