simon.stjohn Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Hi everyone... When you set a page as the home page, you end up with two URLs....in my case https://baligram.me and https://baligram.me/baligram Are the same page.... ....because the page /baligram is set as my Home Page. Isn't that a problem for SEO in terms of duplicate content? What do others do - redirect https://baligram.me/baligram to https://baligram.me? Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) I suggest you rename the page URL slug to "home". A redirect will not work from an active page. This works better with SEO. Edited August 31, 2023 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment
simon.stjohn Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 Hi @derricksrandomviews Thank you for the advice and taking the time to reply. Do I need to do a 301 redirect of https://baligram.me/baligram to https://baligram.me as well? Link to comment
Solution derricksrandomviews Posted August 31, 2023 Solution Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) You could redirect using URL mappings or you can change your 404 not found page to send empty URLs to your homepage. I prefer to use that method. Edited August 31, 2023 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment
simon.stjohn Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 @derricksrandomviews That sounds a great way to go rather than a 404.....do you might if I stretch the friendship and ask how I would do that? I tried googling for instructions but results were more along the lines of customizing a SP 404 page.... Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 You open website/pages/system pages then open to 404 page, and choose the home page from the pull-down menu. Link to comment
