Duplicate Page Title error for an eCommerce store !!
-
I currently launched my eCommerce startup hosted in Shopify and linked with MOZ. From my first Crawl Report I am getting 580 Duplicate Page Title i.e. all my Collection page have the same title. I have googled and have been checking the MOZ community but cannot find a fix to it. Some of the URL's are -
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all?page=10
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all?page=100
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all?page=101
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all?page=102
http://www.onlypetstore.com/collections/all?page=103
I am new to SEO and any suggestions will be a great help to me.

Actually I would suggest something totally different. What platform are you on?
Send a variable to the title tag that prints out the page number to the title tag. If you are on page 1 have no page number printed out. That will solve the issue. If you happen to be using Prestashop something like this would work perfect for you, http://www.presto-changeo.com/en/prestashop-modules/25-duplicate-url-redirect.html it handles that.

ok, then something else is wrong... i will check that as well but my office hours will end now... will be back tommorrow... hold on

Thank you for your answers.
I am getting 6 Duplicate Page Content and 527 Duplicate Page Title errors. I did do what you told me to rel=canonical for the first page but will check that part again.
-
duplicate content is often closely connected to a duplicate page title - but mainly not with shops
how many duplicate content errors do you have?
You have to imagine, that you always present the same title according to the fact, that you`ve several sites to let your customers scroll through. Tell the Google Bot, which url he should index by using rel=canonical
Together with rel="next" & rel="prev" this should solve the issue
Have you done that?
-
The pagination part has been done like that to facilitate infinite scrolling.
Can you tell me where to start or just a brief on what need to be done rest I will dig it up.
-
you have also a pagination problem... take a closer look at rel="prev" & rel="next" methode
I am sorry but it
s a huge topic... this can
t be answered shortly without avoiding mistakes in detailed explanations

Codeigniter - Controller and duplicate pages
Hi there, I use Codeigniter as framework and I have a question about the duplicate page. Actually, for default, the typical page in a CodeIgniter framework is something like this: http://www.domain.com/site/contact where site is the controller containing the contact function that point to the contact.html view... To have a better URL I use a trick with the "routes" that redirect any http://www.domain.com/contact to the original http://www.domain.com/site/contact Of course the both are valid and the both are... crawled! So I get the duplicate page. Is this something I have to manage, maybe with .htaccess? Any idea would be very appreciated. Thanks for you precious time guys! Shella

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?

Wrong duplicated page content
I found out that some errors on my website are considered as "duplicated page content" while they are not, the content is different on each page. I wonder why ? Is it an issue from Seomoz ?

Crawl Diagnostics shows two title and meta tag errors but they are false positives.
I got one hit each on "Missing Meta Description Tag" and "Title Missing or Empty" but in the source of my page they are clearly there: <title>Protein Powder | Compare and Get the Best Prices</title> <meta name="keywords" content="protein powder, whey protein, protein supplement, whey protein isolate, hydrolyzed whey" /> I understand there are conventions which may or may not be followed by Drupal (I read an earlier question where ordering and W3C conventions were suggested) but i'm not sure how to fix them given Drupal will just overwrite any hand editing the next time something is built and importantly, I can't get the crawl to work on cue - it works on the automatic once a week crawl in the main campaign summary but every time I've specifically used the Crawl Test tool it gives me a "There was an error submitting your request to the crawler. Please try again later" so I can't really test any changes. Given Google seems to be recognising the title tag - ie showing it in the results - Do I put this down as seomoz just not working? Kind Regards, Brian

SEOMoz Crawler and rel_canonical_tag Errors
This tag is showing up on category pages (that do not have a duplicate page on the site). In mid November Google cut our traffic by 30%. Could this tag be confusing the spider? According to the moz crawler - we seemed to be dinged for this on 95% of our pages. Is this hurting us? It seems to direct back to the same page.EG: From the FMI3600 Page http://www.brick-anew.com/FMI-3600-Fireplace-Doors.html: http://www.brick-anew.com/FMI-3600-Fireplace-Doors.html"> There is only one page for the FMI 3600 Fireplace Door category - however, it does have the same products on it as other FP Door Category pages,

Multiple Page Title Elements?
Greetings, I am baffled by the recommendation I repeatedly receive from seomoz's on-page optimization tool. The web page I am working on only shows one title between <title>and</title> in it's head. However, seomoz is also reading "Pass to multiple" from somewhere. It recommends that I "Avoid Multiple Page Title Elements" and I would like to but cannot find them. Any suggestions? By the way, I inherited this site and am just trying to deconstruct someone else's work. As a novice, I realize there might be some obvious explanation that I am just missing. Thanks!
