Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
-
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands.
My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007.
I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here?
One error that really stands out is this:
Description
<dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd>
On my root page I have:
rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/>
Thanks for any help...

Thats not the ones you get with a pro account, but it prooably does much the same.
I use the Bing SEO Toolkit to crawl your site. But SEOMoz should find much the same

Can you tell me where to look for SEOMoz list of broken links?
-
I found over 300 broken links, that was only a sample, i would suggest there is many more.
Hiow many did SEOMoz report.

removed link name
-
What is the URL i will tell you if they are real of not.
-
Yes it is a "notice", so it is just information to me not an error.
Thank you!
I also have several 404 Red Status Codes any idea what these are?
I read the recent posts about them and that they may disappear on a future crawl...

This canonical error is a notive not a error correct?
if so it is just letting you know they are there, it is important you dont have canonicals in pages and not know.
Canonicals in every page pointing to itself was seen as a good idea to help protect against screen scaping, but recently Bing has said that it is a incorrect use and that they will lose trust in your canonicls if used in this way.

Unsolved Moz can't crawl my site

Abnormal crawl issues appearing in my Moz results
I have been asked to look at a site for a friend and was more than surprised to see 16,9k crawl issues appear in the dashboard... of this 6,238 are duplicate page content and 5878 are duplicated page titles. What on earth is going on? I have spoken to the web developer as it appears there is a dev site somewhere and this is his response [Can I stress that Google determines which site was in the index first and then removes other sites it sees as having duplicate content. Our dev sites appearing in the search index would not affect your ranking due to duplicate content as Google would see your site as the first site with the content] As I cannot make contact with him, I am scratching my head, surely a dev site should be no-indexed, it sounds as though he is saying that its ok because Google will take the main site as the first site with the content... Very confused! Help need MOZ community. Manythanks, Sarah

Crawl Diagnostics 2261 Issues with Our Blog
I just recently signed up for MOZ, so much information. I've done the walk through and will continue learning how to us the tools. But I need your help. Our first moz crawl indicated 2261 issues (447 404's, 803 duplicate content, 11 502's, etc). I've reviewed all of the crawls issues and they are linked to our Yahoo hosted WordPress blog. Our blog is over 9 years old. The only issue that I'm able to find is our categories are not set up correctly. I've searched for WordPress assistance on this topic and cant find any issues with our current category set up. Every category link that I click returns Nothing Found Apologies, but no results were found for the requested archive. Perhaps searching will help find a related post. http://site.labellaflorachildrensboutique.com/blog/ Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Error in Moz duplicate content reports
Hi - I've run the Moz campaign on a client's site. Moz is saying that there are duplicate content errors, and when I look at the errors it is showing that they are all to do with the non-www URLs having being duplicated in the www form of the URLs. However this is not the case - all the non-www URLs are all 301 redirected to the www URLs. Is this an error in the Moz tool? Has anybody experienced something similar?

Crawl Diagnostics Error Spike
With the last crawl update to one of my sites there was a huge spike in errors reported. The errors jumped by 16,659 -- majority of which are under the duplicate title and duplicate content category. When I look at the specific issues it seems that the crawler is crawling a ton of blank pages on the sites blog through pagination. The odd thing is that the site has not been updated in a while and prior to this crawl on Jun 4th there were no reports of these blank pages. Is this something that can be an error on the crawler side of things? Any suggestions on next steps would be greatly appreciated. I'm adding an image of the error spike Xovep.jpg?1 Xovep.jpg?1
