I have a site that I’ll be migrating over to Treepl soon from BC. The site owner has an SEO team and on every review they recommend redirecting various duplicate URLs.
For example they want none all foldered content to appear in search engines as domain.com/folder (no trailing slash), and not domain.com/folder/ or domain.com/folder/index.html
In BC creating redirects for either of these case create an infinite redirect loop as BC treats these all as the same content with mulitple URLs.
I tested and redirecting from domain.com/folder/index.html to domain.com/folder/ works in Treepl as they are two distinct entities in this CMS.
Has anybody had any luck dealing with having domain.com/folder/ (trailing slash) resolve/redirect to domain.com/folder (no trialing slash)?
Is it possible to get one of the Treepl devs add somethign to the .htaccess for your site to deal with this or is there another workaround?
Are there other duplicate content gotchas that I should know about?
(PS. I know about canonical links… but according to this SEO team that isn’t sufficient on it’s own… they are always looking for me to create 301 redirects to address this issue)
