The biggest problem OpenCart sites face is the duplicate/thin pages penalties caused by its default link scheme. By default, every page on the site can be accessed by a multitude of links. OpenCart SEO Link De-duplicator ends the duplicate link madness by standardizing one proper link for each page, and 301 redirecting all of the “ghost” versions to the proper link. Boost your SEO efforts in just minutes!
How It Works
As an example, let’s say you’re running a default OpenCart installation on widgetstore.net. You’re selling Blue Widgets. The regular URL to the Blue Widgets product page would be:
http://www.widgetstore.net/blue-widget
However, you’ll soon find this product can be accessed from many, many different URLs, for example:
Category pages:
http://www.widgetstore.net/widgets/blue-widget
Secondary category pages:
http://www.widgetstore.net/other-widgets/blue-widget
Manufacturer pages:
http://www.widgetstore.net/northwestern-widget-company/blue-widget
Non-seo URL:
http://www.widgetstore.net/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=51
Partially-seo manufacturer URL:
http://www.widgetstore.net/northwestern-widget-company?product_id=51
Partially-seo category URL:
http://www.widgetstore.net/other-widgets?product_id=51
Complete gibberish URL:
http://www.widgetstore.net/sdj//gos//djg/////osd/CANT/BELIEVE/THIS/REALLY/WORKS/blue-widget
and thousands more!
Ugh. You can try the above examples on your own store and you’ll see it illustrated. The problem with having many duplicate pages is that Google will index many of these dubious URLs, making your site appear to have thin and duplicate content, which dilutes your pagerank and hurts your ranking in searches.
The Solution
OpenCart SEO Link De-duplicator works in two ways:
1) It will change all of your links site-wide to a single canonical version. Each time a product is linked on your site, it will be linked to the same URL.
2) Permanently (301) redirect all the duplicate links to the correct canonical link so you don’t have to worry about losing any Pagerank or “link juice”
This plugin will also redirect variations of the site’s home page:
http://www.widgetstore.net/index.php
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/
http://www.widgetstore.net/index.php?index.php?route=common/home
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/
and your category pages:
http://www.widgetstore.net/index.php?route=product/category&path=72
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/category/
http://www.widgetstore.net/a-bunch-of-giberrish-here/real-category
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/real-category
and your information pages:
http://www.widgetstore.net/a-bunch-of-giberrish-here/delivery
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/delivery
http://www.widgetstore.net/index.php?route=information/delivery
becomes:
http://www.widgetstore.net/delivery
Do away with duplicate/thin content penalties once and for all with this easy plugin!

OpenCart SEO Link De-duplicator installs easily using vqmod. Just drops in place, no need to edit any source files. Full instructions are included.
OpenCart SEO Link De-duplicator now also corrects category page parameter duplication. For example, OpenCart’s pagination by default links to /category?page=1 which is the same as /category. These links are now corrected. Also, sort parameters using the default sort scheme (i.e. /category?sort=p.sort_order) are now changed to the canonical link automatically.
New in version 2.0
Now compatible with both OpenCart 1.5.x AND OpenCart 2.0! You can easily change the URL scheme in the admin. Easily choose between the following product link formats:
http://www.yoursite.com/product-name
http://www.yoursite.com/main-category/product-name
http://www.yoursite.com/main-category/sub-category/product-name
