: Duplicated content in Google after updating my urls I have a prestashop 1.6. Due a I had dirty urls with ids, last week I bought a module to clean those urls, http://addons.prestashop.com/es/16633-pretty-urls.html.

One of the best ways to manage this sort of search for content is:
(in the Google search bar) site:yoursitename.com and see what is indexed.
Then remove your plug-in. Work manually for best results.

First: go to www.xml-sitemaps.com/ or a similar site and get a sitemap.
Then EDIT it so that you have only the pages (new ones).

Next upload this and tell Google where the sitemap it via Google Webmaster Tools / Google Search Console.

Then read this: support.google.com/webmasters/topic/4598466?authuser=0&rd=1
Once read MANUALLY ask Google to remove URLs

A week isn't all that long (though I know it sure feels like it is). Steps you can take include:


Double/triple check your 301 redirects are pointing to the correct new URLs.
Ensure your sitemap.xml includes all of the new URLs and none of the old. Resubmit the sitemap in Google Search Console.
Check your canonical tags include the new URLs.
Look at any external links you can find and have them updated to use the new URLs.


Other than that, have a lot of patience.
