Title tags drawn from breadcrumbs
-
My client has a magento site that we've recently started working on. After the site was crawled by Moz a couple of times we noticed there was an issue with title tags being too long. However, when we looked closer at the data, Moz was seemingly picking up the breadcrumbs as the title tag. The actual tag is a small part of the breadcrumbs, but Moz was reporting they were the same.
For example:
Breadcrumbs - home>products>category A of products
Title Tag - category A of productsI just wondered if anyone else has had this problem? Is it Moz's mistake or is the title tag auto generating from the breadcrumbs and cutting off the beginning somehow?
Any information would be really helpful, thanks.

Hey Richard! It appears your site might be intermittently placing these titles on the page. Looking at cached data you can find the titles we picked up last week
Hope this helps!

Hi Matt, thanks for getting back to me. The site is electroustic.co.uk and the problem seems to be affecting most of their products pages. For example:
http://electroustic.co.uk/connectivity-products/industrial-ethernet/accessories
http://electroustic.co.uk/connectivity-products/industrial-ethernet/wlan-industrial-wireless-lan
http://electroustic.co.uk/connectivity-products/automation-technology/o-modules -
Hi Richard! Would you be able to share the URL of your site/affected pages? This is a tough one without seeing the page source.

Crawl report - duplicate page title/content issue
When the crawl report is finished, it is saying that there are duplicate content/page titles issues. However there is a canonical tag that is formatted correctly so just wondered if this was a bug or if anyone else was having the same issues? For example, I'm getting a error warning for this page http://www.thegreatgiftcompany.com/categories/categories_travel?sort=name_asc&searchterm=&page=1&layout=table

How do you solve this issue? Pages coming up as [No Title] in Open Site Explorer
I see this when researching top pages. I know for a fact that the pages have title tags that appear to be fine on google and our site, so I'm not sure what the [No Titlle] means or why it's appearing in Open Site Explorer. Thanks!

Will canonical tag get rid of duplicate page title errors?
I have a directory on my website, paginated in groups of 10. On page 2 of the results, the title tag is the same as the first page, as it is on the 3rd page and so on. This is giving me duplicate page title errors. If i use rel=canonical tags on the subsequent pages and href the first page of my results, will my duplicate page title warnings go away? thanks.

What the . . ! Duplicate Pages and Titles WAY up?
My duplicate pages went up 50 plus in the past week, and my duplicate page titles went over more then 100. We recently redesigned the website, but it has been up for several weeks now. The only change I made specifically last week or late the week before was to get my 301 redirects done to get the www. version and the non www version pointing to the same place (as well as a couple other sites that point to it). I'm sure this is not enough info to figure out what went wrong . . . I'd love some help in figuring this out though.
