gorillaracking.co.uk/ & gorillaracking.co.uk/home duplicate content?

Hi,

 

Please don't shout at the newbie! Smiley Frustrated Am sure is a daft question but I have spent a day Googling but can't find the answer?!

 

My seo company have informed me my gorillaracking.co.uk/ page obviously shares duplicate content with my gorillaracking.co.uk/home page. How do I get around this? Can I get rid of the "home" page? presumably I don't need 2 home/index pages?

 

Any help would be very much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Iain

Hello @rowneybury27

Yes, gorillaracking.co.uk/ & gorillaracking.co.uk/home are seen as duplicates. The best solution is to use a 301 redirect from the page with /home to the one without it.
