Crawl Diagnostics Shows thousands of 302's from a single url. I'm confused
-
Hi guys I just ran my first campaign and the crawl diagnostics are showing some results I'm unfamiliar with..
In the warnings section it shows 2,838 redirects.. this is where I want to focus.
When I click here it shows 5 redirects per page. When I go to click on page 2, or next page, or any other page than page 1 for that matter... this is where things get confusing. Nothing shows.
Downloading the csv reveals that 2,834 of these are all showing:
URL: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
url: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
referrer: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
location_header: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
I guess I'm just looking for an explanation as to why it's showing so many to the same page and what possible actions can be taken on my part to correct it (if needed).
Thanks in advance

its difficult to tell without knowing how you set up these 302 redirects. This specific URL returns a 404 page and does not redirect to anything which may contribute to the False attribute.
Have you considered just doing a 301 redirect for these pages?

Thanks Derek. You are correct and I apologize for not being clearer. Here is a single row from the csv output below. I also included a screenshot of the entire row with the headers so you know what you're looking at..
http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE 302 text/html; charset=UTF-8 http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php 0 2012-09-06T13:03:37Z 0 0 0 0 http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php

If these were in the warning section, then these are temporary redirects, correct? Can you provide a screen shot?

Duplicate content flagged by Moz that's not actually duplicate content at all
Hi, Moz has flagged a whole lot of pages as dupe content, but I cannot see how they qualify as such.

Not sure if I'm allowed to post actual URLs here....happy to if I can, but I feel certain that the pages are not 90% similar. Has anyone else had this experience? ~Caro1 -

Ajax4SEO and rogerbot crawling
Has anyone had any experience with seo4ajax.com and moz? The idea is that it points a bot to a html version of an ajax page (sounds good) without the need for ugly urls. However, I don't know how this will work with rogerbot and whether moz can crawl this. There's a section to add in specific user agents and I've added "rogerbot". Does anyone know if this will work or not? Otherwise, it's going to create some complications. I can't currently check as the site is in development and the dev version is noindexed currently. Thanks!

Problems with Crawl Diagnostics/New Campaign
Hi all I added a new domain to my campaigns yesterday and got the usual message saying we will have a small set of results ready in a couple of hours, and the rest will be done in a week or so. 24 hours later, this same message is still showing. Anyone else experiencing this or is it just related to my domain? Many thanks. Carl

Need to find all pages that link to list of pages/pdf's
I know I can do this in OSE page by page, but is there a way I can do this in a large batch? There are 200+ PDF's that I need to figure out what pages (if any) link to the PDF. I'd rather not do this page by page, but rather copy-paste the entire list of pages I'm looking for. Any tools you know of that can do this?

Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands. My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007. I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here? One error that really stands out is this: Description <dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd> On my root page I have: rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/> Thanks for any help...
