Hi Rajesh! Has your question been answered?

It's really tough to tell without specifics, but a couple of suggestions:
(1) If you're getting a mis-match between what you see and what we see (such as a 404 error for a page that seems to load), I'd run a header checker, like:
http://tools.seobook.com/server-header-checker/
Make sure that your pages are being served up correctly (it's hard to see through a browser).
(2) For duplicates, it depends a lot on why they're being generated. Often, it's a URL variation or minor change that's creating dozens or hundreds of pages with the same title. Keep in mind that every unique URL is a "page" to a crawler.
I've got a mega-post on the subject here - it's complicated:

mmm same number of dupe titles/content, let me think of pages with few content in them.
If you're sure that your developer didn't make any change you can:
- put a dynamic rule in your title so to have it changing based on the changing elements of the page (like appending page 2 for the second page etc)
- about the content if the duplication happens on different pages you can ask a freelancer to write some new content, but if the content appears on the same page but with some filters or pagination you may consider both: noindexing those pages, canonicalize them or simply remove the content from pages different than the first one.
- export seomoz data and find where are you missing your title(you got same info on GWT)
- the same for 404, see which pages are linking to bad urls and fix that issues. IF you're lucky you may fix more than one link if they're dinamically generated.

ya i got 4 types of error in SEOMOZ
In Duplicate page title - 5000 error, Duplicate page content 5000 error , Title Missing - 40 error, 404 -106 error
How to solve these issues? -
Hi Rajesh I would like to help you but I couldn't understand your issue.
Do you have dupe titles?
Do you have pages which should not retrun 404?
Do you have pages which are redirecting without you making anything to the site to achieve that 301?

Duplicate Content - Multiple URL's
I know a few of these problems come from products being in the same categories but I have no idea how to get rid of the url's that are showing duplicate content when the product is in the exact same place. Hard to explain, but here are URL examples. http://www.ocelco.com/store/pc/www.ocelco.com/store/pc/Bathtub-Floor-Corner-Stainless-Steel-Grab-Bar-Right-Hand-left-hand-pictured-688p3308.htm http://www.ocelco.com/store/pc/www.ocelco.com/store/pc/Bathtub-Floor-Corner-Stainless-Steel-Grab-Bar-Right-Hand-left-hand-pictured-696p3308.htm http://www.ocelco.com/store/pc/Bathtub-Floor-Corner-Stainless-Steel-Grab-Bar-Right-Hand-left-hand-pictured-p3308.htm http://www.ocelco.com/store/pc/Bathtub-Floor-Corner-Stainless-Steel-Grab-Bar-Right-Hand-left-hand-pictured-688p3308.htm Any Idea's how to fix / get rid of these URL's? Thanks!

How to find page with the link that returns a 404 error indicated in my crawl diagnostics?
Hi Newbie here - I am trying to understand what to do, step by step, after getting my initial reports back from seomoz. The first is regarding the 404 errors shown as high priority to fix, in crawl diagnostics. I reviewed the support info help on the crawl diagnostics page referring to 404 errors, but still did not understand exactly what I am supposed to do...same with the Q&A section when I searched how to fix 404 errors. I just could not understand exactly what anyone was talking about in relation to my 404 issues. It seems I would want to find the page that had the bad link that sent a visitor to a page not found, and then correct the problem by removing the link, or correcting and re-uploading the page being linked to. I saw some suggestions that seemed to indicate that seomoz itself will not let me find the page where the bad link is and that I would need to use some external program to do this. I would think that if seomoz found the bad page, it would also tell me what page the link(s) to the bad page exists on. A number of suggestions were to use a 301 redirect somehow as the solution, but was not clear when to do this versus, just removing the bad link, or repairing the page the link was pointing to. I think therefore my question is how do I find the links that lead to 404 page not founds, and fix the problem. Thanks Galen

Advice for 4000+ duplicate errors on 1st check
Hi, 1st time use of the SEOMOZ scan has thrown up a lot of duplicate errors. Seems to look like my site has a .com.au/ & .com.au/default for the same pages. We had the domain on a hosted cms solution & have now migrated to magento. We duplicated the pages, but had to redirect all of the old url's to he new magento structure. This was done via a developer adding a 301 wildcard code to the .htaccess. Would that many errors be normal for a 1st scan? Where should I look for someone to fix them? Thanks

SEOmoz showing crawl errors but webmastertools says no errors, need help!
Hi this is my first question and i couldnt find a similar question on here. basically i have a clients website that is showing 150 duplicate page titles and content errors plus others. SEOmoz analysis is showing me for example is 3 duplicate hompage URLS: 1.www.domain.com 2.domain.com 3.www.domain.com/index.html all 3 are the same page. after explaining to the guy (who built the website) the errors, he ensured me that the main URL is URl 1. and the other 2 are 301 redirects. however SEOmoz analysis doesnt seem to change the results and webmastertools doesnt seem to show any errors at all. also if i try all 3 URL's there are no redirects to URL 1. any help or clarity would be awesome! Thanks e-bob

Too Many On-Page Links
The SeoMoz site crawler says all my pages have too many links. I am using Dreamweaver with a horizontal Spry drop-down menu bar. My site has several hundred pages and about 100 of them show up in this Spry menu bar. I believe that this would be considered a false positive for too many links - am I right? Or is Google seeing this also as too many links per page? I am trying to get my Google rankings back after being hurt badly by the Penguin. I am using php but don't see another way to do the site links without going to a CMS type site. Thanks for any help you can give.
