When I get a 404 error report like below, I can't find a reference to the specific link on the page that is in error? Can you help me.
404 : Error
Thanks,

Looks like you missed "http://" in some URLs so the browser is treating them as relative links. There are more.
On this page: http://www.boxtheorygold.com/blog/?Tag=Business+Leader and others like it, I found several URLs that start with "www." which is your problem. This page has a relative link on the anchor text "keep on improving"

If you export the data as a CSV, you can find what page is linking to the 404 page under the "referer" column. You can also find this information in Google Webmaster Tools.

Why would someone go to same 404 page over and over?
Good morning, I've been using the redirection plugin on my wordpress site and noticed i have multiple IP addresses going to the same folder on my site - like "mydomain.com/folder-name/". The "folder-name" is obviously not anything remotely like any folder or file name I have on my domain - so it's obviously spammy in nature. And, there are multiple IP addresses going to this same URL address every 3 hours on the dot, so it's appears automated. Is this something to be concerned about? Should I "do" anything? Thanks in advance for reading and replying!

Error Code 902 & 403
Several thousand of these popped up on my Crawl Report and the links appear to be searches, i.e. below 902: http://thespacecollective.com/index.php?route=product/search&tag=nasa+ma-1+jacket%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F 403: http://thespacecollective.com/index.php?route=product/search&tag=periodic+table+tshirt%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F I don't want Moz, let alone Google finding this kind of nonsensical link but I don't exactly know what the problem is or how to fix it. Am I right in thinking these are pages people have searched for? Can anyone shed light on this please?

Since July 1, we've had a HUGE jump in errors on our weekly crawl. We don't think anything has changed on our website. Has MOZ changed something that would account for a large leap in duplicate content and duplicate title errors?
Our error report went from 1,900 to 18,000 in one swoop, starting right around the first of July. The errors are duplicate content and duplicate title, as if it does not see our 301 redirects. Any insights?

Error on SEOMoz When Trying to Track Website. Please Advise
Hi, I'm trying to start a new campaign for a root domain, but I'm getting the "Roger found an error" and am not sure what to make of it. Error #1: "You've decided to set up a root domain campaign, but entered the subdomain path: www.siteurl.com. Don't worry, we'll switch that for you and crawl everything on the subdomain: www.siteurl.com. If you meant to set this up to only crawl pages in the root domain, click 'Go back and Change" and enter a root domain URL in step 1." Error #2: "Oops! The root domain siteurl.com redirects to a domain that is not within the specified root domain (www.siteurl.com). This will cause us to stop crawling as the first discovered page falls outside of the root domain you've defined. Please make sure you enter a root domain that resolves to a page that is under the root domain." What does this mean? Is there something I am doing wrong? The first error is what returned when I input www.siteurl.com. The second was returned when I put just siteurl.com. I didn't put up the exact URL for privacy reasons, but if you really do want to help me out, PM me and I can give you the real URL. Thanks in advance!

Weird client errors . . .
SeoMoz is reporting a number of weird client errors. The 404 links all look like the following: http://www.bluelinkerp.com/http%3A/www.bluelinkerp.com/corporate/cases/Nella.asp What might be causing these weird links to be picked up? I couldn't find any way within the SEOmoz interface to track down the source of these links . . .
