🔁 Duplicate Scan
Find content that competes with itselfThe Duplicate Scan finds pages on your site that are too similar to each other — a common cause of keyword cannibalization and diluted rankings.
🎯 Purpose
Surface duplicate and near-duplicate content so you can consolidate it and let a single strong page rank.
🕒 When to use it
- After migrating or importing content.
- When two pages seem to fight for the same keyword.
- During a technical SEO audit.
👣 Step-by-step HOW IT WORKS
1Run the scan
Trigger a duplicate scan for the project; results are versioned and kept in history.
2Review clusters
See groups of pages with high content overlap.
3Consolidate
Merge or canonicalize duplicates so one authoritative page ranks instead of several weak ones.
🧩 What's on this page
▸Similarity clusters — Groups of pages that overlap too much in content.
▸Versioned history — Every scan is saved so you can prove the cleanup worked over time.
▸Canonicalization guidance — Know which page to keep as the canonical and which to merge or redirect.
💡 Common use cases
- Fix keyword cannibalization between two blog posts.
- Clean up thin, near-identical location pages.
- Prepare a site for a core update by consolidating weak content.
⭐ Tips & best practices
★Keep the page with the most links and traffic as canonical; redirect the rest.
★Re-scan after consolidating to confirm the duplicates are resolved.
