Duplicate content error?

I am getting a duplicate content error for the following pages:

http://www.bluelinkerp.com/products/accounting/index.asp

http://www.bluelinkerp.com/products/accounting/

But, of course, the 2nd link is just an automatic redirect to the index file, is it not?

Why is it thinking it is a different URL?

I figured it out. Turns out there were old pages that used the improper URL. They were very difficult to find haha

There are actually no redirects in place, so SEOMoz thinks they are both separate links.

If you redirect one of the pages to the other like you said, the duplicate content error will disappear.

You can check redirects using this tool: http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/

When I did my first crawl, I was given some errors.

Do I then need to re-crawl to make sure the errors were fixed accordingly?

How to trace 4XX errors in campaign data?

I am trying to resolve a number of 4XX (Client Error) issues noted in my campaign report, but I have no idea where they are originating. All I get is the broken link, the status code, the page authority and the number of linking root domains. How do I identify where the erroring link originates? Is it coming from within my website, or from an external website? I have gone through my site in great detail looking for these links, but can't find any evidence of them. I also use a broken link detection plugin and it reports no problems whatsoever. Is there a way I can drill down into these 404 links and get more detail about where they are coming from?

Why are these pages considered duplicate page content?

A recent crawl diagnostic for a client's website had several new duplicate page content errors. The problem is, I'm not sure where the error comes from since the content in the webpage is different from one another. Here's the pages that SEOMOZ reported to have duplicate page content errors: http://www.imaginet.com.ph/wireless-internet-service-providers-term http://www.imaginet.com.ph/antivirus-term http://www.imaginet.com.ph/berkeley-internet-name-domain http://www.imaginet.com.ph/customer-premises-equipment-term The only thing similar that I see is the headline which says "Glossary Terms Used in this Site" - I hope that the one sentence is the reason for the error. Any input is appreciated as I want to find out the best solution for my client's website errors. Thanks!

Errors on my Crawl Diagnostics

I have 51 errors on my Crawl Diagnostics tool.46 are 4xx Client Error.Those 4xx errors are links to products (or categories) that we are not selling them any more so there are inactive on the website but Google still have the links. How can I tell Google not to index them?. Can those errors (and warnings) could be harming my rankings (they went down from position 1 to 4 for the most important keywords) thanks,
