      SEO Moz tool reports missing title tags on all the links that have been redirected. E.g. this page: http://www.imoney.my/ms/personal-loan

      When I check the response code on the page with redirect checker it shows code 200 (page exists).

      Has it happened to anyone else? How can a redirected page send a 200 code?

        Thanks, guys!

        Your responses were really helpful. It was a bug on our Drupal, sending wrong redirect codes.

          As Jonathan mentioned you should indeed use a 301 redirect if it is a permanent redirect and a 302 redirect if it involves a page which is temporarily not available.
          It does show the title tags so I think that solving the redirect issue would also solve your SEOmoz missing title tags issue.

          If you changed the 302 to 301 and it still shows that your title tags are missing let us know and we'll try to help you identify and solve the problem.

            I ran the URL above through two header tools, both returned 301s. Here's the header check info returned:

            HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently => Server => nginx Date => Mon, 03 Jun 2013 06:17:24 GMT Content-Type => text/html Connection => close X-Powered-By => PHP/5.4.6-1ubuntu1.2 Expires => Sun, 19 Nov 1978 05:00:00 GMT Last-Modified => Mon, 03 Jun 2013 06:17:23 +0000 Cache-Control => no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0 ETag => "1370240243" Content-Location => http://www.imoney.my/ms/ms/personal-loan Location => http://www.imoney.my/ms/pinjaman-peribadi X-Redirect-ID => 101 X-Frame-Options => SAMEORIGIN

            And to answer your question, no, a redirected page should not return a 200 status code.

            I hope that helps.

              On my browser the page returns a 302 (temporary redirect). It could be that MOZ would still expect the page to eventually resolve. A 302 usually means that the page is temporarily down or not available. Thus should keep the page in index as it should eventually re-appear.

              If you are not planning on making this page available again I would suggest you use a 301 instead.

                Should I set blog category/tag pages as "noindex"? If so, how do I prevent "meta noindex" Moz crawl errors for those pages?

                From what I can tell, SEO experts recommend setting blog category and tag pages (ie. "http://site.com/blog/tag/some-product") as "noindex, follow" in order to keep the page quality of indexable pages high. However, I just received a slew of critical crawl warnings from Moz for having these pages set to "noindex." Should the pages be indexed? If not, why am I receiving critical crawl warnings from Moz and how do I prevent this?

                Is one page with long content better than multiple pages with shorter content?

                (Note, the site links are from a sandbox site and has very low DA or PA) If you look at this page, you will see at the bottom a lengthy article detailing all of the properties of the product categories in the links above. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-s/432.htm My question is, is there more SEO value in having the one long article in the general product category page, or in breaking up the content and moving the sub-topics as content to the more specific sub-category pages? e.g. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-Button-Head-Socket-s/1579.htm

                Add to cart redirect using 302

                I am getting a list of crawl errors in Moz because I am using a 302 redirect when people click on an item using the quickview add to cart eg:http://copyfaxes.com/cart/quickadd?partno=4061 will redirect them to the viewshoppingcart page. Is this wrong should this be a 301 redirect? There is no link juice to pass. Thanks

                How long for authority to transfer form an old page to a new page via a 301 redirect? (& Moz PA score update?)

                Hi How long aproximately does G take to pass authority via a 301 from an old page to its new replacement page ? Does Moz Page Authority reflect this in its score once G has passed it ? All Best

                My page has a 302 redirect and I don't know how to get rid of it!

                I use Internet Officer tool to see the 302 redirect but I check the redirects in the CPanel and there are none. In the .htaccess there are none either. I don't know where else to look 😞 The url is http://servicioshosting.com Can you guys help me? I can't set up a campaign because Google can't crawl the website. I can't setup the Facebook OpenGraph because of the redirect. error.jpg

                Duplicate page titles are the same URL listed twice

                The system says I have two duplicate page titles. The page titles are exactly the same because the two URLs are exactly the same. These same two identical URLs show up in the Duplicate Page Content also - because they are the same. We also have a blog and there are two tag pags showing identical content - I have blocked the blog in robots.txt now, because the blog is only for writers. I suppose I could have just blocked the tags pages.
