Answer 1

if you have a large table with huge number of records then above solutions will not work or take too much time. Then we have a different solution

-- Create temporary table

CREATE TABLE temp_table LIKE table1;

-- Add constraint
ALTER TABLE temp_table ADD UNIQUE(title, company,site_id);

-- Copy data
INSERT IGNORE INTO temp_table SELECT * FROM table1;

-- Rename and drop
RENAME TABLE table1 TO old_table1, temp_table TO table1;
DROP TABLE old_table1;
