Dupe penalty - Can PHP save me?

Post by fatman »

I have 2 URL's pointing at the same page, and I am being penalized for duplicate content.

For strange reasons I wont discuss now, I dont think I can use a 301 redirect.

Here's my idea:
If I look at the URL resolving to the page server-side, and I generate unique page-text depending on which URL calls the page, will the GoogleBot be fooled?

What will this do to the optimization of the page? (I am talking about my index page)

I'm not sure what you're asking but perhaps mod_rewrite could be of some help?
