Is Duplicate title made Sanbox?
-
I use Seomoz tool and discover that my webpage have 1000 duplicate title, my keyword with domain key 's position is 25, but i dont have any keyword ontop 100 of google.
Is the Duplicate title effect in the key word position or SEO ? right?

I'm not sure what the "id=" parameter is doing, functionally, but there are many ways to control it, and Robots.txt is probably not your best bet. You could META NOINDEX the duplicates, or you could rel=canonical to the "master" page. It's a complex subject, and I've got a comprehensive post about it here:
http://www.seomoz.org/blog/duplicate-content-in-a-post-panda-world
Those duplicates can definitely dilute your ranking ability, and even trigger a Panda problem (that could harm your entire site).
I don't believe there's really a sandbox in 2012, in the way we used to mean it. Many sites go out the gate ranking pretty quickly. Sometimes, after an initial grace period (30 days or so?), Google lowers a site's ranking, but that's usually because they re-evaluated the link profile. Large-scale duplication wouldn't cause that. The good news is that, once you clean it up, rankings should gradually improve.

Dear friend!
Thanks you for the support ^^!
My website backlinks are pointed from my another website by the banner at the left hand side bar ( follow link, of course this is also travel website), and i litle is from the forum and blog, the biggest links are from my website ( another site).
So, Should i remove from my another website or from the blog, forum...
Because my another website have index 2000+ so the links are too many.
And with the backlink, what is the most important factors? PA, DA, or link root domain...
Thank you ^^!

Ok so now we know it is due to the Penguin update.
The first step to do will be analyzing every single on of your backlink. Use Webmaster Tools and export all the backlinks that are pointing to your website. Next you will have to check out each single backlinks to see the quality of the link. I like to use the Mozbar addon to quickly check what the MozRank and MozTrust of the page is where the backlinks to your site is located.
Once you got the full list of links you want to have gone, you will first have to manually try and remove the links. This could be relatively easy if the link for example is from a directory where you had to make a profile first in order to create a listing. In that case, you can just delete the listing. Otherwise you will have to email the owner of the website if they could remove your backlink.
Now if, let's say 2-3 weeks have passed and you still haven't heard back of some the webmasters (even though you contacted them), you can go ahead and use the link disavow tool. This tool however has to be used with high care.
Have a read of http://searchengineland.com/google-launches-disavow-links-tool-136826 for an understanding of the tool.
If you don't fully understand the tool, please come back to the SEOMoz forums and ask for help, you need to fully understand how it works.
Good luck and feel free to ask any other questions!

I think so! My website loss Top at that time.So What should i do my friend?

By the sound of you might of gotten a penalty of Google.
I believe it might of been the penguin update.
I had a look at your backlink profile, and out of a total of 2.9k links you have 968 links with the anchor text of "vietnam visa of arrival". This is a clear signal to google that you are trying to manipulate to rank for that keyword.
Did the rankings decreased around the period of April the 24th?

Having duplicate titles will most certainly be effecting your SERP rankings, along with many many others factors of course.
Page titles should be unique on each page, and contain keywords that describe or that are relevant to the page.

Duplicate Title Tag issue due to Shopify CMS
Hi guys, I'm a novice really when it comes to SEO, yet have taken it in house for the next year or so, firstly because I have had my fingers burnt twice...and secondly, to allow me to recoup some of the loss from my prior campaigns. One thing I have noticed on my site (which uses a Shopify E-commerce CMS), is that Shopify duplicates a url for each my products. An example of this is http://www.vidahomes.co.uk/collections/designer-radiators-heating/products/reina-aliano

http://www.vidahomes.co.uk/products/reina-aliano Both products provide exactly the same information, yet appear in different ways subject to how the customer finds them. I contacted Shopify to find a fix to this issue when I noticed a high amount of Duplicate Title Tags in my SEO crawl. Their response was as follows. Using a rel canonical link will help prevent duplicate content issues with search engines. All you need to do is add this line of code: **<link rel="canonical" href="{{ canonical_url }}" />** ** before the tag in the theme.liquid file. It’s that simple :)** The theme liquid file basically generates the outer template for the whole site, and is only compromised when over-ruled. This all seems a little too easy for me, so I am hoping whether someone can elaborate as to whether this will work or not, as I'm not entirely sold on their response. I was always under the impression with canonical tags, that they should be added to the header section of the duplicate page in question, which refers back to the original page. The code I have been told to add above implies that the canonical tag would be added to every page in my site so the Google robot would have a hard time in finding anything at all of relevance Thanks in advance for any assistance with this.

Duplicate content issue
Hi everyone, I have an issue determining what type of duplicate content I have. www.example.com/index.php?mact=Calendar,m57663,default,1&m57663return_id=116&m57663detailpage=&m57663year=2011&m57663month=6&m57663day=19&m57663display=list&m57663return_link=1&m57663detail=1&m57663lang=en_GB&m57663returnid=116&page=116 Since I am not an coding expert, to me it looks like it is a URL parameter duplicate content. Is it? At the same time "return_id" would makes me think it is a session id duplicate content. I am confused about how to determine different types of duplicate content, even by reading articles on Seomoz about it: http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/duplicate-content. Could someone help me on how to recognize different types of duplicate content? Thank you!

How should I shorten my titles?
I've read that page titles can't/shouldn't be more than 70 characters long. Out of around 1,000 products we have about 150 that have legitimate titles that exceed this character limitation. We plan on automatically truncating these. Should I just cut the titles off at 70 characters or should I cut them off and add a "..."? Does it even matter?

Title Element Too Long Question
I have recently become a pro member of SEOmoz and I've been going through the crawl diagnostics summary in an attempt to fix some of the errors. Currently I have 2,167 pages where the title element is too long. I would like to fix this, but I have certain keywords present on all of the pages that I am ranking first for. I am afraid if I take these words out of my titles it will hurt my rank for those keywords. Is it better to leave the keywords in or remove them to get under the 70 character mark?
