Confusing Moz Crawl?
-
Hi there,
I am not sure if I am missing on something but the moz crawls are rather confusing. After singing in I have received 11 emails with crawls and today I have received again new,
When I go to check there to the dashboard it shows 26 pages with issues. When I scroll down I see the pages with issue. Then when I click on the first page listed, to view the issues it says this:
Rel Canonical
Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical. For this site: http://villasdiani.com/ but we have sorted out the canonical issues a long time ago. Is this a wrong information or is it really true that we do not specify the canonical for our site?Then the second page with issue is there listed http://villasdiani.com/beach-villas/ and it says:
Duplicate Page Title
You should use unique titles for your different pages to ensure that they describe each page uniquely and don't compete with each other for keyword relevance.But it does not point out which page is duplicate with this one! I do not have any other page named the same way.
It also says in Issues overview 26pages with issues, but it shows on the bottom only 5 under and when I click on view more it brings me to high priority issues where is 0.
The most is freaking me out this report:
When I click on links, there are listed on the bottom the pages with highest authority among which I found this http://villasdiani.com/db I have never created this kind of page! Funny enough when I click on it it really open that page! How this can be???
In issues overview it also shows on the bottom, right corner 11 page with duplicate content but when I click on it to review it it brings me to high priority issues windows where is not displayed anything
Can somebody advice me regarding of this. I have sign up here to learn and sort out the problems with the site but so far I am only getting more confused here.
Thank you very much for looking into this.

Thank you very much for your time and looking into this.
I am very sorry but I am not sure if I understand you correctly:-( Perhaps you are using some translator? I have noticed you are from Czech republic, you can talk to me in Czech language, I speak this language very well.
As regarding of the duplicate page titles, how this can be duplicate???
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/page/2/
http://villasdiani.com/rentals/beach-villas/page/3/
It is a category with properties and it has 3 pages?? how can I avoid to this?
Also as regarding of the weird link-the db page i just pasted a wrong link, crawl shows me that this one our most important pages:http://villasdiani.com/?db
What do you mean that url site map is failing for a dns lookup??? Oh my god what I have screwd up? How can I fix it? I am using yoast seo plugin.
/sitemap_index.xml
Thank you very much Frutiko (Hodne dekuji)

Why RogerBot can't crawl site https://unplag.com
Hello Please help me to solve the problem. The on-page grader and Crawl Test are not working for Unplag.com website. Both said that they can't access the url. Yes, I've tried different variants like unplag.com, http://unplag.com One more thing - RogerBot was disallowed in robots.txt file. I deleted it from the file a week ago so maybe moz index haven't been renewed.

Moz Crawl Test Trying to Crawl Contact Form Submit Button Location?
Moz Crawl Test for some reason is trying to Crawl a contact form Widget Submit Location. My obvious guess is that obviously the crawl cannot submit to the required fields…..I believe this because they're only kicking back these errors on the pages I have a contact form widget on. http://crawfordspest.com/pest-control/crawfords@crawfordspest.com 1412553693 404 : Received 404 (Not Found) error response for page. Error attempting to request page; see title for details. 404

Error attempting to request page; see title for details. 404 Can you shed any insight to this? I'm a bit worried that I'll have to complete gut the contact form which was one of the major requests my client requested. Or in a worse scenario make all fields not required. It would let so much spam in. I have never seem anything like this at all. But I've learned a lot from Moz, and with major errors like 404 damage Domain Authority greatly. I've fixed 404 issues with newly acquired clients existing sites and tracked through Moz and the domain authority flies up once these errors are fixed. Along with fixing what Webmaster Tools through Google reports back. ..... Let me know if you have any expertise on this matter.0 -

Moz Dupe content crawl anomaly
Hi Moz has completed a crawl for a site i'm working on which also has a development area (hence with lots of dupe content) on a sub domain (and this dev area hasn't been hidden from crawlers via password, robots, gwt etc etc). Moz dupe content report is not showing any of these urls though even though my campaign setting is on 'root' domain so i would have thought report should be listing the subdomain urls as dupe content (because they are dupe content). Any ideas ? Cheers Dan
