One of the sites I am working on suffers a lot from duplicate content due to the CMS. If I do site:domain.com and compare it to site:domain.com/* it would appear almost 90% of it resides in the Supplemental index. Although from what Google said in 2007 there is no Supplemental index. So I am not sure why that command is showing such a difference. Maybe I am reading it wrong ?
But back to the question. I was looking into this and made some stupid mistakes (it happens). I was looking at the dynamic content with the command:
site:domain.com inurl:dynamicparamater
This was showing me some results but most being buried in the omitted results. I took this to mean that dynamic parameter was causing duplicate content (it seems a good guess because page titles and meta descriptions were generic for these pages). I had been working on a nofollow/robots.txt strategy to help this site and think that may have caused me to go mental. So when I became rational I thought the reason results are in the omitted results is because Google is saying there are lots of similiar pages with the same URL.
Is that assumption correct and was I totally off using that command to find dup content being created by dynamic pages ?
