20000 site errors and 10000 pages crawled.
-
I have recently built an e-commerce website for the company I work at.
Its built on opencart.
Say for example we have a chair for sale. The url will be:
www.domain.com/best-offers/cool-chair
Thats fine, seomoz is crawling them all fine and reporting any errors under them url great.
On each product listing we have several options and zoom options (allows the user to zoom in to the image to get a more detailed look).
When a different zoom type is selected it adds on to the url, so for example:
www.domain.com/best-offers/cool-chair?zoom=1
and there are 3 different zoom types. So effectively its taking for urls as different when in fact they are all one url. and Seomoz has interpreted it this way, and crawled 10000 pages(it thinks exist because of this) and thrown up 20000 errors.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this?
-
(ha, who know the endorsement was limited to 3 lines of text?)
As I was saying... Every time a parameter is added to the url, such as zoom=1, it technically becomes another URL.
Canoncicals for the win
Best of luck!

You need to use a rel-canonical tag. You can read a really informative post by Rand on it here:
This thread has some good opencart-specific advice regarding implementation:

Page with "Missing Title Tag" isn't a page
Hello, I am going through the various errors that the Moz Pro Crawl report and some non-existent pages keep coming up in the report. For example, one error category is "Missing Title Tag" with one page identified. But this page http://www.immigroup.com/news/“http%3A/crs.yorku.ca”?page=2 isn't real. It would have been a 404 were there not a redirect for everything that is /news/gobbledygook to /news. So my question is: when moz (or GA for that matter) identifies these pages as "real" and having errors, do I need to take this seriously? And what do I do about it? Thanks! George

I am trying to find inbound links for one of my site urls. My question is does SEOMoz able to track all internal links as the Open Site Explorer shows 0 internal links?
It shows 0 internal links when I am pretty sure we have multiple internal links.Should we use absolute urls or relative urls for internal links?

On Page Grading Not Working
I am not getting any results in on page grading. When I click on add keywords a list of keywords appears that I have previously entered. They have tick boxes next to them and you can filter them but SEO moz is not automtically creating grade reports? Any ideas? Obviously I've set it up wrong somehow.

Why is my domain not being crawled anymore?
I just noticed that right around 12/1/2012, SEOMoz stopped crawling all but two pages out of the 400 or so on my website at www.TrustworthyCare.com . I speculate that this is probably due to some dumb mistake I made at that time, but I can't for the life of me figure out what that mistake was. Before that, the weekly crawls included all 400 or so pages. I wonder whether it's something that changed in our .htaccess file. Here's how that file looks now; can anyone see what is wrong there, or perhaps offer other suggestions if it doesn't look like anything is wrong in it? Thanks!

How to force a recrawl of a site?
Hi, I made changes in my site. I would like to see the result of the crawl diagnostic. I know the crawl is happening every week, however, is there a way to force a re-crawl in order not to have to wait 5 days? Cheers,

Link from home page
I see an abundance of websites that don't link out at all, and there is no data available to seoMoz for the sites, some like http:// regal - diving dot com (trying not to get moderated AGAIN Innocent need to show which link and its a competitor kind of) are not linking to anyone else just internal links. How come they dont show info to SEOMOZ Should I link out from home page, is this detrimental does ANY single link from home page show google that I am not a PROPER web business. thanks
