    Default Virante SEO tools tells me Default Page Check: FAILED

    Hi just ran my site through http://www.virante org/seo-tools/ everything passed apart from this
    Default Page Check: FAILED
    You have not standardized your default pages meaning the following versions of your url return a 200/OK Header, which may cause duplicate content issues. The following extensions work:

    Got the same result with the default template so I don't think it's a template issue, should I be worried and if so how can I resolve it. Cheers

    This is normal/standard web-server behaviour.

    Yes, worried that this 'seo test site' is giving a 'failed' response when it has no reason to do so. (What else is it doing wrong?)

    Nothing to fix. This is normal/standard web-server behaviour.

    Cheers

    These online "SEO Audit " tools are one of the biggest scams on the internet. OF COURSE your site will FAIL something !!! How do you think these scams make their money?

    They spin you a whole lot of techno-babble - all of which looks pretty impressive - then they tell you that the site has a major problem.

    Many people then click the link (usually close by) that says "Click here to get us to help you fix this".

    Never click those links.
