Moz says I am missing titles and meta tags and have duplicate content
-
I just redesigned my website and suddenly traffic has dropped.
Moz says I am missing titles, meta tag descriptions and have a lot of duplicate content.
My site is http://skigenie.com and is full of unique and hand written content,.
Are there any wordpress plugins that will add titles etc to my pages (some of the added ones are custom)?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi Alex,
Did any of these responses answer your question? If so, please mark one or more as a "good answer." Thanks!

You can setup Yoast Wordpress SEO or All In One SEO Pack and set them to block duplicate content (tags, categories, date archives, etc.) when you configure settings.
-
Also, if your new website means that the URLs of your pages have changed you'll want to think about implementing some 301 redirects to your new pages. Check your inbound links and make sure that the target pages are redirected to the most relevant new page.

YOAST SEO plugin is one of the best SEO plugins, you can manage OG meta and force rewrite rules on custom pages
-
Do you know how I can fix it? Is there a plugin or another method?
-
Yes, that's correct. You have OG:title and OG:description (opengraph data) but you don't have a <title>tag or meta description on your pages.</p> <p>The duplicate content is your /tag/ URLs:</p> <p><a href="http://skigenie.com/tag/skis/">http://skigenie.com/tag/skis/</a> has the same info as http://skigenie.com/tag/find-skis/</p> <p> </p></title>

Magento Site "Title Missing or Empty"
Hi everyone . . ..bear with me as I am "noob". My moz analysis brought up a few "critical" issues, one of which was a missing or empty title for a page. That page is: http://www.thirdcoastsigns.com/sales/guest/form Which does not even appear to be a working page . . . so I'm at a bit of a loss ow to fix this. I suspect it's a little bit of SEO expertise and a little bit of Magento expertise. Thoughts and suggestions welcome! P.S. Look forward to my NEXT noob question about a bunch of pages I have flagged as "Pages with temporary redirects". Stay tuned!

I have a duplicate content on my Moz crawler, but google hasn't indexed those pages: do I still need to get rid of the tags?
I received an urgent error from the Moz crawler that I have duplicate content on my site due to the tags I have. For example: http://www.1forjustice.com/graves-amendment/ The real article found here: http://www.1forjustice.com/car-accident-rental-car/ I didn't think this was a big deal, because when I looked at my GWT these pages weren't indexed (picture attached). Question: should I bother fixing this from an SEO perspective? If Google isn't indexing the pages, then am I losing link juice? 6c2kxiZ

Duplicate Page Content, Indexing and Rel Canonical Just DOUBLED! Need Advice to Fix
Last Friday (Penguin 5/2.1) my website shot way off the grid and I noticed in my MOZ PRO Campaign dashboard that all of the following just doubled in numbers on my website: duplicate page content, Google indexing, and rel canonicals. I also noticed that some of my pages, images, tags and categories now added a /page/2/ or a -2. I just changed noindex for tags, but indexing for media, pages, posts, and categories. I'm currently using All In One SEO for a plugin. Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm stuck on the issue. relconical.png Duplicate-Page-Content.png [Duplicate Content II](Duplicate Content II) index1.png

Why is moz saying I have a 404 error?
I recently asked a question on here about how to fix my 404 error. I figured it out, and now webmaster tools says it's not there any more. This as been confirmed by keeping watch for about a week now. But Moz just crawled my site today and is for some reason showing an error. Am i missing something here or is Moz a little slow sometimes?

Who else has inaccurate reporting? SEO Moz BUG
I have been in contact with support to little avail no timelines for the correction kind of leaves me out in the cold. I have loved SEOmoz in the past but this recent bug is costing me time and money. Can someone please tell me how they are working around all these issues in rank reporting and a zero accuracy rate on page report cards? bugs are holding up my SEO efforts. SEOmoz has been in touch but has provided no timelines. My programs are suffering. I found inaccuracy in each report metric and now have very little faith that this is going to be corrected in a timely fashion. I rely greatly on the wonderful tools SEOmoz provides and now I am flying blind. Who else has been hit by the bug? And, what has support done for you to help?

IP Location at a glance - Moz toolbar
I am using the latest version of the moz toolbar in my firefox browser. The IP location feature is not working for me as demonstrated in the article. "You will now notice a new button with a flag that shows up in the toolbar as you surf the web. This new toolbar addition shows the country where this site is hosted. Click on the flag to see more details about the location and IP address. If you want to learn more, click on the IP to access WhoIs information." My flag icon is depressed and looks like a US flag, even when I browse European sites. Also, I never see the location nor IP address of other sites. Am I missing a step or is the tool not working correctly?
