In one of my websites, I did a bulk import from a CSV. Unfortunately, the bulk import created a lot of duplicated entries. Since there were many duplicate posts in WordPress, I could not delete them manually.
As you know, duplicate content is something Google doesn’t like. So I wanted a way to delete all the duplicated imports.
After a little research, I found this awesome plugin that did the work for me.
Note: This plugin worked flawlessly without corrupting any other functionality on my website. However, I would strongly suggest you take a backup and do a small test before performing bulk deletes on production websites.

Step 3: Once activated, the plugin will show all the duplicated entries on your website. You can selectivity delete or do a bulk delete of the duplicated posts.
Plugin Features
1. The best feature of this plugin is that once deleted it will create a 301 redirect for the deleted post. This redirection will help if the duplicated post is indexed or linked to any other websites.
