Avoiding duplicate content via IIS
I've read somewhere recently that websites inherently are perceived as having duplicate content as http://www.mysite.com and http://mysite.com will both resolve to the same site.

 By James Peggie
Do a search on your favorite search engine for your company name. Look at the results. Hopefully your company web site is at the top of the pile. But what about the other 9 results in the top 10?
