My website name is "Global Blurb". For the last month, I have been facing an error in Google Webmaster Tools with duplicate title and meta descriptions. See the screen shot:



I am using canonical URL. I also disallow replytocom? in robot.txt, but the problem still here.

How do I solve this issue?

You should implement 301 redirects from the non-trailing slash version to the trailing slash version, e.g. /somepage to /somepage/

Google treats those URL variations as totally different pages, therefore reporting duplicate content.

If you 301 redirect /somepage to /somepage/ then Google will "see" only the /somepage/ version.
