Thanks but I know I shouldn't have duplicate content it was just a oversight that I didn't put the duplicate static pages in a robots.txt file.
My question is google has indexed my dynamic pages years ago but I prefer to have them index static pages. Should I block the dynamic pages or since they already indexed them should I just block the static pages?
Also how to I write the robots exclution for dynamic pages?
would this block my dynamic pages? Since all dynamic pages have a ? in them.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /?
That's a tough call. If Google has had a set of your pages in its index for years, and its working, I would be inclined to leave it alone. But on the other hand it could reindex you, and integrate your new pages into the engine, but it may take a year for all the new dust to settle.Originally Posted by Northstar
Also - consider using Google Sitemaps

Yep - google sitemap is a great tool!
What is google sitemaps and does it help you position in google?
Google sitemaps doesn't help you get better rankings per se, it's a sitemap tool that helps Google index your search engine better. It helps make sure that everything you want crawled gets crawled.

If you want to hit me up on ICQ or AIM and give me your URL, I can do some poking around the SE's with you to give you my assessment.
Here's a good article on the issue:

And here's another with specific quotes from Google:

Thanks Dzinerbear, I will take you up on that offer. It would be good to have a outside person look at the site to see if I overlooked anything.
