Does SeoMoz realize about duplicated url blocked in robot.txt?
-
Hi there:
Just a newby question...
I found some duplicated url in the "SEOmoz Crawl diagnostic reports" that should not be there.
They are intended to be blocked by the web robot.txt file.
Here is an example url (joomla + virtuemart structure):
http://www.domain.com/component/users/?view=registration
and the here is the blocking content in the robots.txt file
User-agent: *
_ Disallow: /components/_
Question is:
Will this kind of duplicated url errors be removed from the error list automatically in the future?
Should I remember what errors should not really be in the error list?
What is the best way to handle this kind of errors?
Thanks and best regards

Hello Franky,
Yes, our crawler obeys robots.txt files. If you recently made that change to your robots then it should reflect in your next crawl. If this error doesn't go away, feel free to let us know help@seomoz.org. Thanks for letting us know!

Don't be too worried about SEOMOZ's errors. Just be aware of them, and if you have done what you need to for the robots file in regards to S.E robots, they should take notice and there shouldn't be any issues. Always be sure to check GWT for errors, those are the ones you should fix asap.

SEOmoz Keyword Ranking - Does it work for local search?
I was just wondering how SEOmoz calculates keyword rankings up and down every week. Shouldn't there be a way to have SEOmoz calculate rankings on a Local and Non-Local Basis? For example I have "Local Dentist" as a keyword in SEOmo for my dental client. SEOmoz shows that we are not in the Top 50. | Local dentist Keyword History Ranking Analysis | Not in Top 50 | Moved unknown 0 spaces | Not in Top 50 | Moved unknown 0 spaces | Not in Top 5 | If I change my location in Google browser to the zip of where the office is located, we

Hello All, Alright, according to SEOmoz's PRO campaign manager, one of my websites is returning about 2,700 pages that supposedly have duplicate content.

Duplicate Content Issues with WordPress
I'm having some difficulty with a few of the sites I'm managing right now. When I run a report here, I'm getting a duplicate content issue with sites that I'm running through WordPress. Sites running on a different CMS are not getting the issue. The duplicate content is being listed as from two URL's that are identical. I checked trailing slash, spelling, capitalization, everything. It looks like the same site is being marked as two with duplicate content. Does anyone have any ideas of what could be causing this and/or what I may be able to do to resolve the issue (or if it's really something to worry about or not)? Thanks. (and thanks for helping the new guy!)

Why does SEOMoz Pro only do Rankings Once a Week?
Not sure I understand why the SEOMoz PRO report of rankings only occurs once a week? Any ideas? Seems like it would be easy to just pull that ranking report at any time.
