Can someone explain the attached on page error message?
-
Two weeks ago, I took down our mobile site and switched to one on dudamobile. However, for some reason, I keep getting this error/improvement message on my on page report. I do not see how I can have a cannocial problem with a page that is no longer there. Can someone explain that and what I can do about it?
Thanks!

Whoops sorry Mike ninja'd me so you have two of the same answers but at least you know the answer is correct this way!
haha

So I'm not sure how dudamobile works in this regard (although I am currently developing a site through their service so this is relevant to my interests) but I do know how canonical tags work.. In looking at the page in question I'm seeing two different canonical tags. One points to the desktop page and the other points to the mobile page. This is a mistake and will prevent either page from being indexed, just as this warning from dudamobile reads. (*PROPS to dudamobile for catching these types of things!)
I can't see the source for your mobile page as it automatically redirects me to the desktop version when I try to access it but basically you want that one to canonical to the desktop site and the desktop site to canonical to itself (or nothing, really.)
But by no means should you canonical the desktop version to the duplicated mobile version of the same page and vice versa. This will cause neither page to be listed in SERPs.
Hope this helps!

It appears that your problem is that you have 2 canonical tags. One referencing the desktop site and one referencing the mobile site.
Remove the /mobile/clearwater/bankruptcy-clearwater-lawyer-attorney.html tag from that page and you "should" be good to go.
Hope this helps,
Mike

Moz is treating my pages as duplicate content but the pages have different content in reality
Attached here is a screenshot of links with duplicate content. Here are some links that is also based on the screenshot http://federalland.ph/construction_updates/paseo-de-roces-as-of-october-2015 http://federalland.ph/construction_updates/sixsenses-residences-tower-2-as-of-october-2015/ http://federalland.ph/construction_updates/sixsenses-residences-tower-3-as-of-october-2015 The links that I have placed here have different content. So I don't why they are treated as duplicates BWWJuvQ

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?

How can authority of the page be higher then authority of the domain?
In the opensite explorer most of the links that I see have a higher domain authority and lower page authority which makes sense to me because I thought that domain authority is an aggregate of its pages authority. But apperently I was wrong because sometimes I see that the page authority is greater then its domain? How could that be?

On Page Analysis and Grading
I received an email that my on page analysis for my campaigns were completed. But when I click on the link there are no grades there. What does that mean? Another question on this topic....when your campaign is graded are pages graded on all the keywords in the campaign or is each keyword graded invidividually? Thanks!

Can SEOMOZ do Local SEO ?
Most of our clients are local but we can not get local or regional (for example VA State or Washington DC) SERP results within SEOMOZ. it would be nice to create custom search profiles based on region (State or County) and track SERP within SEOMOZ. Ranking reports and even keyword difficulty analysis etc. within SEOMOZ are misleading for local web sites. SEOMOZ default site setup assumes every business doing SEO serves all over the US. I think it will be very beneficial if we have a choice to select State or County of local web sites during initial campaing set up at SEOMOZ. what do you think? do you know any work around of this problem? Thanks,

Duplicate page content reports duplicates, but pages don't show duplication
My duplicate page reports shows 376 pages with duplicate content. After reviewing the pages the report claims have duplicate content, i can't find duplications. could this be an error, or is there some source code that doesn't display that could be causing this issue?
