Question forum home page multiple URL-consolidation through dbseo

[rtiindia]

Sir,
I have forum at root folder of domain. However, there are three URL which point to the same page:

http://www.website.com/
http://www.website/forum/
http://www.website/forum/forum.php

I have put one redirection from http://website.com to http://www.website.com.

Can you be able to help so that there is only one link i.e. www.website.com which should point ot my forum?

If you enable the "Force Directory Index" setting in the DBSEO AdminCP General Settings, that should accomplish this

I do have "Force Forum Directory Index" enabled. Does it mean that even though all the URL are accessible, for search engines it is one?

 

[Fillip H.]

That's correct, the Canonical URL tag ensures only the preferred URL is indexed

ok Thanks.
