Woocommerce filter urls showing in crawl results, but not indexed?
-
I'm getting 100's of Duplicate Content warnings for a Woocommerce store I have. The urls are
etcThese don't seem to be indexed in google, and the canonical is for the shop base url. These seem to be simply urls generated by Woocommerce filters.
Is this simply a false alarm from Moz crawl?

Hi Justin:
I have a client with this problem. All of the filter URLs are crawled by Moz, show as duplicate content in Moz, have 302 warnings in Moz. All of them canonical back to their respective category pages. None appear on WMT/Search Console, but doing a similar "site:URL" search on Google shows they are indexed. I'm curious what you've done in the last year to resolve this? Or have you only tried to resolve via Sitemap submission, and did that work for you? Thank you!

Just an fyi for anyone who is using the Woocommerce and Yoast plugin, you can remove the additional features, custom attributes, and other Taxonomies that you may not want indexed via XML Sitemaps - Taxonomies.
-
I see now, thank you good sir! The answer to that question is likely "no" Now to hunt for a solution in the WordPress/Woocommerce/Yoast environment.
-
Hmmm thank you for the feedback. Google is not indexing these though...
If I google a phrase "egardwatches.com filter 128" to find this url -http://www.egardwatches.com/shop/?filter_additional-features=128 -
It does not appear in Google results, and it has the ? query indicator, which should tell Google it is dynamic?
Are you sure this isn't an issue with Moz crawl only?
How can it be duplicate content if it isn't even indexed?

Google Site search operator showing different results than Search Console
Hey everybody, I am seeing some confusing results. I am seeing that in the back of our Search Console we are showing around 4,500 sites indexed. If I use the "site" operator in google, only 2820 show up... any thoughts as to why that happens?

Pages with URL Too Long
Hello Mozzers! MOZ keeps kindly telling me the URLs are too long. However, this is largely due to the structure of E-commerce site, which has to include 'brand' 'range' and 'products' keyword. For example -
Moz Pro | | tigersohelll
https://www.choicefurnituresuperstore.co.uk/Devonshire-Rustic-Oak-Bedside-Cabinet-1-Drawer-p40668.html MOZ recommends no more than 75 characters. This means we have 25-30 characters for both the brand name and product name. Questions:
If it is an issue, how to fix it on my site?
If it's not an issue, how can we turn off this alert from MOZ?
Anyone know how big an issue URLs are as a ranking factor? I thought pretty low.0 -

Canonical URLs all show trailing slash on main site pages - using Yoast SEO for Wordpress - how to correct
We are using Yoast for a number of our sites. We use naked domain as the canonical. I have noticed in the header tags that all our sites show the canonical URLs as having a trailing slash: Example: http;//foxspizzajc.com, when I look at the source code, it shows the canonical as http;//foxspizzajc.com/ Of course, it is much more likely that all sites that link to us will not use the trailing slash - so preferably we do not want that to be the canonical - among other reasons. Does this need to be fixed so the trailing slash is removed? I cannot see how to do this in Yoast SEO or in Permalinks structure for Wordpress. Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks for any help.

Crawlers crawl weird long urls
I did a crawl start for the first time and i get many errors, but the weird fact is that the crawler tracks duplicate long, not existing urls. For example (to be clear): there is a page: www.website.com/dogs/dog.html but then it is continuing crawling:
Moz Pro | | r.nijkamp
www.website.com/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html what can I do about this? Screaming Frog gave me the same issue, so I know it's something with my website0 -
Problem crawling a website with age verification page.
Hy every1, Need your help very urgent. I need to crawl a website that first has a page where you need to put your age for verification and after that you are redirected to the website. My problem is that SEOmoz, crawls only that first page, not the whole website. How can I crawl the whole website?, do you need me to upload a link to the website? Thank you very much Catalin
