False Pro reporting of duplicate titles
-
I am testing Pro. About 250 pages of content at my website.
Pro says ALL of my pages have duplicate titles., but when I click on details, they display as unique titles. Ie: first page of results of Pro is as follows.
While the content of my website is on one major topic the title meta tags are NOT identical. Is this an issue with Pro, or is Pro looking at something other than the title meta tags?
Please advise ?

Hi Fred,
Sorry for any confusion. I looked at a handful of your pages that are reporting duplicate titles and they are legit. It looks like your site is set to resolve properly with 200 responses using both the www version and the non-www version.
That is not only giving you duplicate titles and content, but is likely to impact your rankings as those URLs will fit for placement with each other.
That's something you would want to address by redirecting to one or the other. You'd want to talk to your Web Dev team if needed to make sure it's done properly.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
Thanks ABE, you sent me a message about duplicate content. But this is about duplicate TITLEs.
Please advise why Pro is reporting the duplicates.

The Pros & Cons of Free SEO Reports
Are the numerous Free SEO reports that are available around the internet, where I simply put a website address in and wait for the results actually any good? I tend to stick with Moz & Semrush which takes a little time pulling all the information I need together, but many of our clients are being approached by SEO's waving these free reports at them. Should I see these reports as valid, or ignore them and only concentrate on Moz. Any views will be greatly appreciated. -Christina

In Crawl Diagnostics, length of title element is incorrect
Hey all, It appears the Moz crawler is misreading the number of characters in my website's page titles. It shows 72 characters for the following page's title element: http://giavan.com/products/orange-crystal-chain-necklace-with-drop The page title for this web page is: Orange Crystal Chain Necklace with Drop | Giavan which is 48 characters. As it stands, this page title is displayed at 48 characters in Google SERPs. I am getting "This Element is Too Long" issue on 925 pages, which is just about the entire site. These issues appeared after I added additional Shopify (Liquid) code to the page title. If you inspect the code, you will see title element looks a bit odd with extra spacing and line breaks. What I'd like to know is whether or not it's necessary to rewrite the Shopify code, for SEM purposes. My feeling is that it's okay because the page titles look fine in SERPs but those 925 Moz crawl errors are kind of scary. Thanks for your help!

It seems that SEO Moz inturprets & as the html ascii character code: & in my titles. This is pushing the titles over the limit by 1 or 2 characters in some cases. Does this matter? does google actually treat & the same way? or is this an SEO Moz bug?

RSS feed showing up as duplicate content
Hi, I've just run an SEOMOZ Pro scan for the first time and it is picking up duplicate content errors from the RSS feed. For some reason it seems to be picking up two feeds, for example: http://blog.clove.co.uk/2009/05/13/htc-touch-diamond2-review/feed/ http://blog.clove.co.uk/2009/05/19/htc-touch-diamond2-review-2/feed/ Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can resolve this? Thanks
