Issue with old sitemap
-
Hi
Quite new to SeoMoz so some learning curve but we have one issue on a site perhaps someone can advise on? We have many duplicate page titles / content, we think this was due to a corrupt sitemap.xml file, all of the URL's look like this with an odd page at the end
http://www.totalpetsupplies.co.uk/problem.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/animals/Cat_Accessories_Pet_Collars/privacy.aspx
So that XML map was removed well over a week ago, the new sitemap is an apsx generated one to get all pages correctly show as www.totalpetsuppies.co.uk/sitemap.aspx. Goolge and Bing have that.
SeoMoz re did our site and the errors went up a bit!!
Not sure how that process works, anyone any suggestions?
Cheers
Shaun

Hi Scott
Its all sorted now, seemed to be a question of time, the map is there but I think you missed an l in your url you checked?
Thanks a lot for the input and suggestions, much appreciated

I don't see www.totalpetsuppies.co.uk/sitemap.aspx are you sure that's where you sitemap is?
Have you verified your site in Google Webmaster Tools and looked for broken links / crawl errors (404 errors)?

Index or No Index (Panda Issue)
Hi, I believe our website has been penalized by the panda update. We have over 9000 pages and we are currently indexing around 4,000 of those pages. I believe that more than half of the pages indexes have either thin content. Should we stop indexing those pages until we have quality page content? That will leave us with very few pages being indexed by Google (Roughly 1,000 of our 9,000 pages have quality content). I am worried that we would hurt our organic traffic more by not indexing the pages than by indexing the pages for google to read. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim Rodriguez
