Is my Site Spam?
-
Recently google dropped our site a big time. Can some body tell me if my site is spammy. Our visibility was 67% and one of our top competitor had the visibility of 72%.

Hi Tanveer,
Thanks! Here's what I saw: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/comparisons?site=www.aa-rental.com&comparisons%5B0%5D=www.meetingtomorrow.com&comparisons%5B1%5D=www.rentex.com
MeetingTomorrow.com clearly has you both beat in terms of link profile and social media presence. My guess is that your company and Rentex.com each are able to rank for some terms, but that for some you do better and for some they do better. Are you SPAM? No. I can say that. Do you maybe have some inbound links causing you problems, maybe, but you have so few inbound links I really don't think that's the problem.
One thing I did see that concerned me was a count of "0" for Internal Links. I ran your site through several tools and it seems all of your internal navigation links are "do follow." To me, this means there could be a redirection issues (although I checked that too and didn't see anything) or a technical SEO issue that's causing search engines not to see your internal links.
I would start my pursuing that. Try to find out why you have "0" internal followed links. That's not helping your link profile and could mean that search engines are having a problem crawling your site.
I hope that helps!

Hi Tanveer,
Have you compared your site and your competitor in Open Site Explorer? If not, I would do that first. You might be ale to see right away what or if there are major differences between your site and their's. If you've already done that, can you share that info via link here? Then I might be able to comment in more detail.

404 : Errors in crawl report - all pages are listed with index.html on a WordPress site
Hi Mozers, I have recently submitted a website using moz, which has pulled up a second version of every page on the WordPress site as a 404 error with index.html at the end of the URL. e.g Live page URL - http://www.autostemtechnology.com/applications/civil-blasting/ Report page URL - http://www.autostemtechnology.com/applications/civil-blasting/index.html The permalink structure is set as /%postname%/ For some reason the report has listed every page with index.html at the end of the page URL. I have tried a number of redirects in the .htaccess file but doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions will be strongly appreciated. Thanks

Site Explorer - No Data Available for this URL
Hi All I have just joined on the trial offer, im not sure if i can afford the monthly payments, but im hoping SEOmoz will show me that i also cannot afford to be without it! In my proses of learning this site and flicking through each section to see what things do. However when i enter my URL into Site Explorer i get the following message "No Data Available for this URL" My site should be crawl-able, so how do i get to see data for my site/s. I wont post my URL here, as the site has a slightly adult theme.

Canonical issue in open site explorer
When I look at my back links in OSE, I see two landing pages on my site that are really the same page. www.mysite.com/ and www.mysite.com/(affiliate code here) These show different inbound link characteristics and page authority. The page in question has a rel=canonical tag. Am I doing something wrong?
