Adding 301 Redirects to .htaccess

Hey guys,

Google is saying I have duplicate titles and meta descriptions. For example, all of these URLs have duplicate content:

http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tables
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... &order=ASC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... &order=ASC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... &order=ASC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... &order=ASC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... order=DESC
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... C&limit=16
http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tab ... C&limit=16
http://partyhousepong.com/index.php?rou ... ry&path=59

I only want the first URL on that list (http://partyhousepong.com/beer-pong-tables) to be found to have the content when crawled by google spiders...so that there's no duplicate content. I think a 301 redirect of all these URLs to the /beer-pong-tables URL would be the best way to fix this.

My question is how do I write this redirect?

Thanks so much.

You can easily setup 301 redirects from within Cpanel if you have. But you have to do one by one. That will add them to the htaccess.

Although guess there is an easier way to do by adding code directly into htaccess.

I know how to access the .htaccess file but do you know how to actually write redirect code for opencart? I think it's different for opencart because I had someone try to help me and they said they couldn't because they weren't familiar with opencart.
