    Hi

    We've a message through SEMRush for our website saying all our pages are duplicate. Basically it is counting the https://www. and https://as two seperate pages.

    For example https://www.boards.ie and https://boards.ie.

    Any ideas of what to do here? Just a 301 redirect?

    Cheers

    Yep, 301, can usually do it at a server level.

    You can also add a canonical URL within the head element of each page.
    <link href="https://www.domain.com/path-to-page/" rel="canonical" />

    It tells the search engines that the current page should be treated as though it were a copy of the https://www.domain.com/path-to-page/ and that all of the links and metrics the engines have for the current page should actually be credited to the provided canonical URL.
