If you do not have any tags or categories, you should exclude them from Yoast's XML sitemap. To do this;
- Go to SEO -> XML Sitemaps
- Check off Tags and Categories to exclude them from the sitemap.
If this doesn't fix it, let us know - I can try to help further.

I would noindex tags, but leave categories indexed. You can check my post for full details on setting up Yoast: http://moz.com/blog/setup-wordpress-for-seo-success - I'll answer the sitemap question separately.

do you suggest to not indes tags and categories?
-
Do you have Yoast set to index the categories and tags?
There is an option in to noindex those items in the options. Could be the problem.

Page with "random" content
Hi, I'm creating a page of 300+ in the near future, on which the content basicly will be unique as it can be. However, upon every refresh, also coming from a search engine refferer, i want the actual content such as listing 12 business to be displayed random upon every hit. So basicly we got 300+ nearby pages with unique content, and the overview of those "listings" as i might say, are being displayed randomly. Ive build an extensive script and i disabled any caching for PHP files in specific these pages, it works. But what about google? The content of the pages will still be as it is, it is more of the listings that are shuffled randomly to give every business listing a fair shot at a click and so on. Anyone experience with this? Ive tried a few things in the past, like a "Last update PHP Month" in the title which sometimes is'nt picked up very well.

N/A page rank or "grey bar"
I have a web site that is over 10 yrs old, It also has over 30,000 links to it. Last week it received a N/A or "grey bar" page rank. The site also still is listed in the SERPS for my keywords, in fact for a few they have actually improved. The organic traffic is following the same pattern as last year. Webmaster tools doesnt list any critical issues or errors. Is there anything I can do to remedy the situation, or is this just a wait and see? Website is www.netnanny.com.
