Confusing Moz Crawl?
-
Hi there,
I am not sure if I am missing on something but the moz crawls are rather confusing. After singing in I have received 11 emails with crawls and today I have received again new,
When I go to check there to the dashboard it shows 26 pages with issues. When I scroll down I see the pages with issue. Then when I click on the first page listed, to view the issues it says this:
Rel Canonical
Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical. For this site: http://villasdiani.com/ but we have sorted out the canonical issues a long time ago. Is this a wrong information or is it really true that we do not specify the canonical for our site?Then the second page with issue is there listed http://villasdiani.com/beach-villas/ and it says:
Duplicate Page Title
You should use unique titles for your different pages to ensure that they describe each page uniquely and don't compete with each other for keyword relevance.But it does not point out which page is duplicate with this one! I do not have any other page named the same way.
It also says in Issues overview 26pages with issues, but it shows on the bottom only 5 under and when I click on view more it brings me to high priority issues where is 0.
The most is freaking me out this report:
When I click on links, there are listed on the bottom the pages with highest authority among which I found this http://villasdiani.com/db I have never created this kind of page! Funny enough when I click on it it really open that page! How this can be???
In issues overview it also shows on the bottom, right corner 11 page with duplicate content but when I click on it to review it it brings me to high priority issues windows where is not displayed anything
Can somebody advice me regarding of this. I have sign up here to learn and sort out the problems with the site but so far I am only getting more confused here.
Thank you very much for looking into this.

Thank you very much for your time and looking into this.
I am very sorry but I am not sure if I understand you correctly:-( Perhaps you are using some translator? I have noticed you are from Czech republic, you can talk to me in Czech language, I speak this language very well.
As regarding of the duplicate page titles, how this can be duplicate???
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/page/2/
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/page/3/
It is a category with properties and it has 3 pages?? how can I avoid to this?
Also as regarding of the weird link-the db page i just pasted a wrong link, crawl shows me that this one our most important pages:http://villasdiani.com/?db
What do you mean that url site map is failing for a dns lookup??? Oh my god what I have screwd up? How can I fix it? I am using yoast seo plugin.
/sitemap_index.xml
Thank you very much Frutiko (Hodne dekuji)

Crawl Issue Question
Hey guys, I have run the crawl on my WordPress site and Moz finds a "Critical crawl issue" for my site on a broken link (404 error): mydomain.com/**%25s **, I can't seem to be able to find such a link anyway and I have run the website through several other tools that scan for broken links and such and there is no such result.

This link doesn't exist on my site at all and I don't know where Moz got it from, I have made changes to my site and recrawled several times and the specific error persists. Does anyone have any ideas?0 -
Why do my Moz duplicate content results show me pages with no noticeably similar content?
Sometimes the "Pages with Duplicate Content" results under Content Issues show pages that, from what I'm able to see or otherwise test, have no duplicate content, save for the same navigation that exists on all of my pages. For example, a recent issue said that the following pages had duplicate content:

Moz Keyword Explorer how long does it take to gather metrics
Looking at some low volume keywords, I get lots of "Gathering Metrics". These don't seem to be updating with metrics. How long does this typically take, should I set and come back in a couple of hours, overnight? Should I leave the screen open, or will this stop it working? Justin

408 errors in crawl diagnostics
Best community, The Crawl Diagnostics Report of Moz gave our website a lot of 408 errors like below: <dl> <dt>Title</dt> <dd>408 : Error</dd> <dt>Meta Description</dt> <dd>408 Request Time-out</dd> <dt>Meta Robots</dt> <dd>Not present/empty</dd> <dt>Meta Refresh</dt> <dd>Not present/empty</dd> <dd>-----------------------------------------------------------------------</dd> <dd>The report has diagnosed a lot of these (around 320), even though we cannot reproduce the error (we cannot seem to find it ourself). </dd> <dd>2 questions relating to this: </dd> <dd>* Can you (the people of Moz) reproduce the errors manually? </dd> <dd>* Is it possible that it is a bug in the spider of Moz itself (too many spiders crawling at the same time)?</dd> </dl>
