Moz Report-Canonical
-
Moz crawl reported in issues:
Rel Canonical:
using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which url should be seen as canonical.
But we have sorted out this a long time ago. Is there a way where can I verify if the moz crawl is wrong or if we really do not specify the canonical?
-
Thank you very much to all! So I guess the canonical is sorted out. I have also deleted the site from above as I really do not want it in the search, might be the only thing
unfortunately.Thank you very much,
All the best

Iris if you do not want your web be found, delete it from your previous post!
As we told you, after examining home of your web we can observe that it has used canonicals adequately.
I wouldn´t get annoyed about misunderstandings and would keep up research about this powerful tool, read, learn, ask questions as you did, you will be definitely rewarded.
Cheers

Thank you very much for all the help.
In report it is clearly stated as one of the 8 issues and in suggestion it says about rel-canonical, so if we have it sorted out I really do not understand why the tool would be pointing out to it.
If it is really like Claudio and Martjin said that it is a NOTICE then it is realy confusing because it did not NOTICE a image there also or widget nd etc...It could have notice another thousands of things...
Thank you very much for looking into this, being beginner I am full of stupid questions:-(

Hi Iris, as Martijn Scheybeler says, moz could be reporting a NOTICE finding those canonicals.
You should see something as: "Here are some other things we found in our last crawl about this page. These notices might not be affecting your site negatively, but might be interesting for you to know."
It´s a notice not an issue to be solved.
Hope it´s useful and you can continue scaling about using moz which is a terrific tool to optimize, just need to get used to it!
Cheers

Hi Iris,
The 'issue' for REL canonicals is only just a warning that Moz found the rel canonical on your site. So it's not saying it's an issue of some sorts. But if you want to be sure post the URL and we'll take a look.

If you want to post your site or email it to me at lesley@dh42.com I can tell you if you have a canonical tag on your site. You can also view source and search for it as well.

Is there a way to export all your crawl errors for multiple Moz campaigns at once?
We're looking for a simple way to export all crawl errors for our Moz campaigns. More than likely we could use the API, but was wondering if there was any functionality already built into Moz for exporting all crawl errors.

Error in Duplicate Content Being Reported - Pages Aren't Actually Duplicates
The recent crawl of one of our sites revealed a high number of duplicate content issues. However, when I viewed the report for pages with duplicate content I noticed almost all of them are not duplicates. For example, these two pages are marked as dupes:
Moz Bar | | M_D_Golden_Peak
https://www.writersstore.com/publishers/hollywood-creative-directory
https://www.writersstore.com/authors/g-miki-hayden These are thin as far as content goes but definitely not duplicates. Any recommendations or ways to adjust the settings so that these false positives aren't clogging up our site crawl report?0 -
How do I go about fixing my High Priority issues that SEO moz says I have on a PHP site?
I am been trying to deal with this problem for some time now. I have talked to several IT people and SEO moz. None seem to know how to fix these issues on the type of site our company is. Our biggest issue with is Duplicate Page Content. We also have some title issues. Our site is built with PHP coding and variable, meaning the site is not a typical static website. We have a handful of pages that are dynamic depending on what the users chooses to see and do. So, my problem is I can't just go to a specific page and put the canonical or the redirect. It isn't multiple pages for our category pages, for example, it is just one that builds the page depending on the search. Please help!

Moz Crawler URL paramaters & duplicate content
Hi all, this is my first post on Moz Q&A 🙂 Questions: Does the Moz Crawler take into account rel="canonical" for search results pages with sorting / filtering URL parameters? How much time does it take for an issue to disappear from the issues list after it's been corrected? Does it come op in the next weekly report? I'm asking because the crawler is reporting 50k+ pages crawled, when in reality, this number should be closer to 1000. All pages with query parameters have the correct canonical tag pointing to the root URL, so I'm wondering whether I need to noindex the other pages for the crawler to report correct data?: Original (canonical URL): DOMAIN.COM/charters/search/mx/BS?search_location=cabo-san-lucas Filter active URL: DOMAIN.COM/charters/search/mx/BS?search_location=cabo-san-lucas&booking_date=&booking_days=1&booking_persons=1&priceFilter%5B%5D=0%2C500&includedPriceFilter%5B%5D=drinks-soft Also, if noindex is the only solution, will it impact the ranking of the pages involved? Note: Google and Bing are semi-successful in reporting index page count, each reporting around 2.5k result pages when using the site:DOMAIN.com query. The rel canonical tag was missing for a short period of time about 4 weeks ago, but since fixing the issue these pages still haven't been deindexed. Appreciate any suggestions regarding Moz Crawler & Google / Bing index count!

How Can I intreptret The Crawl Report Resulst?
Hello, I am new to Moz and I have received 2 crawl reports. The first one was ok. I made a few changes to my site plugins, and my next crawl report came up with 41 4XX errors. Basically, a lot of my posts. I went back to my plugins and saw the following plugins: 404 redirect plugin & Utlimate Tiny MCE I reactivated both. I am presuming that these must have caused the issues or maybe my site was hacked. I re ran a crawl this morning, but I don't know what the different headings mean or how to understand the report. Can anyone advise? My site is new and just started to go up the rankings...so quite disappointed with this set back. regards Chriss
