      Hello, the result of renewed content appeared in the scan results in my Shopify Store. But these products are unique. Why am I getting this error? Can anyone please help to explain why?

          Remove any duplicate content marketing, replace it with quality white hat text, we done this for a Cardiff Demolition Contractor and got them onto page one of Google.

            HI there!
            Pages can be flagged as duplicate if there isn't enough unique content on each page to distinguish them from each other.
            The Moz tools have a 90% threshold for duplicate content, which means that any pages with code that is at least 90% the same will be flagged as duplicates of one another.

            There is a great Whiteboard Friday video which explains duplicate content, in addition to how unique pages can get flagged.

            To solve this you may want to add more unique and valuable content to each page.

            At time of writing, you won't get a penalty for duplicate content, however anything you can do to help search engines understand what you content is about, and at the same time creating value for your visitors, will support a strong content marketing and SEO strategy.

            I hope this helps!

            Jo

              Unsolved Next JS and Missing content

              nextjs canonical title

              Hello
              We recently migrated our page to next JS which is supposed to be great for SEO
              On almost all our pages we are getting the same errors Missing Canonical Tag Missing Title Missing or Invalid H1 Missing Description We don't understand this because we have all of that content on every page. We believe that maybe NextJs is having a incompatibility with Moz. Has anyone had any experience with this?

              Unsolved GMB Local SEO question

              seo audit

              I am trying to diagnose how one particular competitor is smoking us in local rankings. I came across a text field “Service Details' within Google My Business Services. This allows me to put in a brief description of each service we offer. My thought is that this could be a good place for keywords. That said, the descriptions are not public facing (or to the best of my knowledge) so I am reluctant to do all the work for nothing. I am wondering if anyone has filled these out and if there were any noticeable results. Any insight is appreciated

              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 -
              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.

              Is one page with long content better than multiple pages with shorter content?

              (Note, the site links are from a sandbox site and has very low DA or PA) If you look at this page, you will see at the bottom a lengthy article detailing all of the properties of the product categories in the links above. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-s/432.htm My question is, is there more SEO value in having the one long article in the general product category page, or in breaking up the content and moving the sub-topics as content to the more specific sub-category pages? e.g. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-Button-Head-Socket-s/1579.htm

              Blogger Duplicate Content? and Canonical Tag

              Hello: I previously asked this question, but I would love to get more perspectives on this issue. In Blogger, there is an archive page and label(s) page(s) created for each main post. Firstly, does Google, esp. considering Blogger is their product, possibly see the archive and tag pages created in addition to the main post as partial duplicate content? The other dilemma is that each of these instances - main post, archive, label(s) - claim to be the canonical. Does anyone have any insight or experience with this issue and Blogger and how Google is treating the partial duplicates and the canonical claims to the same content (even though the archives and label pages are partial?) I do not see anything in Blogger settings that allows altering these settings - in fact, the only choices in Blogger settings are 'Email Posting' and 'Permissions' (could it be that I cannot see the other setting options because I am a guest and not the blog owner?) Thanks so much everyone! PS - I was not able to add the blog as a campaign in SEOmoz Pro, which in and of itself is odd - and which I've never seen before - could this be part of the issue? Are Blogger free blogs not able to be crawled for some reason via SEOmoz Pro?
