&#60;li&#62;Do your pages contain a significant amounts of similar content (i.e. the HTML for the page template, does that make up say 90% of your HTML)?&#60;/li&#62;
&#60;li&#62; Are the page &#38;lt;title&#38;gt; tags unique to each page?&#60;/li&#62;
&#60;li&#62; Are your Meta Description tags unique to each page?&#60;/li&#62;

<description>&#60;p&#62;Is your sitemap absolutely essential? If not then I would suggest that you remove it. If you don't benefit from it in anyway, there is not much reason in creating one in the first place.

<description>&#60;p&#62;The front page of the site has a list of links to all areas, even dynamically generated pages. I have also generated a google XML sitemap that is in the root directory, and submitted to google using the webmaster tools.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Over the last few weeks since submitting the sitemap, most of my pages are being listed as supplemental results in googles SERP's.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Is this be because I have both links to all areas in the index page and then these same links in the sitemap?

<description>&#60;p&#62;it depends what you're urls look like and whether the keywords are worth the effort involved.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;SE's (google anyway) see words seperated by an underscore as one word.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Honestly I don't really know the difference in dash vs underscore, I personally use underscores alot in my coding scripts and sites. However, while searching Google I found this article that says its best to use dashes when it comes to Search Engines.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I'm sure there are more resources on this topic.

<description>&#60;p&#62;My understanding is this: Dash &#38;gt; underscore in URLs because underscores are hard to see in underlined links and SEs see dashes as spaces.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;If this is true, what do they see underscores as?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I ask because I'm doing something right now that automatically uses underscores and not dashes (I don't think I can change it unless there's some funky thing with mod_rewrite).&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Is it worth finding a solution to remove the underscores and use dashes instead?
&#60;/p&#62;</description>
