Can not start a SEO MOZ campaign?
-
I keep getting this message, I have a 301 from my domain to my domain with the www prefix. What's the deal?
We have detected that the domain www.photosbykristopher.com and the domain photosbykristopher.com both respond to web requests and do not redirect. Having two "twin" domains that both resolve forces them to battle for SERP positions, making your SEO efforts less effective. We suggest redirecting one, then entering the other here.

Glad you got it resolved, Kristopher.
If you feel it's appropriate, could you mark as a "Good Answer" and mark the overall question as answered? This will help other users who may come across the question in the future.
Thanks!
Paul

Thanks Paul,
I have the 301 in my htacess file, & I tried another method with godday. Hopefully this will fix the problem.

Looks like you have a problem with your 301-redirect implementation, Kristopher.
When I use an independent header-checking tool (http://tools.seobook.com/server-header-checker/) t shows that photosbykristopher.com is returning a 200 Status. This means it's not redirecting to the www.photosbykristopher.com URL correctly.
The www version is also resolving with Status 200. So you do in fact have the "twin domains" problem that the SEOMoz campaign wizard is warning you about.
Better check your 301 redirect implementation. It's busticated - Yea, that's the technical SEO term

Unsolved Why is Moz reporting 308s as 302s?
Got a looooong list of redirect issues in my crawl for a new client, all reported as 302s but as far as I can see they are all 308s... which is perfectly fine, right, or have I missed a memo? They even confirm the 308 status in the moz detail.

Campaign warnings and recommendations
How crucial is it to follow / fix the campaign warnings. For example, even though our website is ranking well the campaign report is stating that we've too many links on the majority of pages and the title element is too long. My question is if I make changes based on these recommendations, do you think that we will see a dramatic improvement in our rankings ?
