How to remove duplicate bookmarks on Mac

1. Consolidate first

If your pages are split across browsers, import both Safari and Chrome before deduping.

2. Filter duplicates by URL

Use duplicate URL filters to identify repeated pages quickly. Prioritize high-frequency domains first.

3. Keep the best record

Retain the entry with better title quality, relevant folder context, and stronger metadata.

4. Re-run search tests

After cleanup, test retrieval with common query terms to verify signal quality improved.
