Hi,

I had read an article about Circular Navigation. I want to share with you all.

Circular Navigation is having multiple paths to the same page on a website.

For Ex: Page A will have a link to Page B on navigation menu. It will also have more links within the text of page A to Page B.

The article also mentioned that this type of navigation causes Duplicate content.

Please tell me how? Coz I used circular navigation and my site is not ranking well.

The trouble comes if you are tracking the user click paths with a query string parameter in the url. If you track user click paths through cookies instead of in a query string, then each page will have only one url. Voila, no duplicate content issues.
