Improve SEO on multi item templates
I was wondering..
I have some multi item templates in use and noticed something regarding SEO.
As an example an articles template.
I noticed few things that are not optimal IMO, maybe we can somehow improve on this?
When the detail-url does not resolve to an item, the list is rendered
So I can have
www.mysite.com/Articles/id/10
which resolves to an article but
www.mysite.com/Articles/id/11
(which does not exist) shows the list of articles.
Wouldn't it be better to generate a 404 when there's an id present and not found?
I noticed this when a client added articles, which were indexed by Google and later removed them.
Google now complains about duplicate content because there are multiple urls to the same list of articles.
www.mysite.com/Articles and
www.mysite.com/Articles/id/11
Not sure how one could handle this in combination with the Url REwriter provider..?
