How to solve duplicate page title & content error

[Rajesh.Chandran]

I got lot of errors in

Duplicate page title - 5000

Here the result page is same and content is also same,but it differs only with page no in meta title

Title missing error

In seomoz report i got empty msg - title,meta desc,meta robots,meta refresh

But if i check the link which i got error it shows all meta tags..we have added all meta tags in our site..But i dont no why i got title missing error .

404 error

In this report,if i click the link which i got error, it goes to main page of our site. But the url differs.

eg:

The error link is :www.example.com/buy/requirement-2-0-inmumbai-property

it automatically goes to www.example.com page

Let me know how to solve these issues.

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.

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?
