How do I interpret Duplicate Content in a Crawl Report, when it only gives me a URL? How do I know what is duplicated on that page somewhere else?
-
I need help interpreting the Crawl Report for Duplicate Content. It gives me the URLs of pages that have duplicate content, but how do I know what content exactly is duplicated elsewhere? And how do I figure out where it is duplicated? Also, are there Moz Analytics articles or videos teaching you how to use each component of the analytics programs? Thanks!

When on the crawl diagnostic page there is the column that says the number of duplicate URLs. If you hover over the little i symbol then the popup will show the other URLs. Also, if you download the CSV of the report there is a column called Duplicate Page Content which lists the URLs.
Edit: Unless I completely misinterpreted what you were asking and you want to know how to find out the exact words or meta that is the same across them all. In which case, Moz usually only picks up duplication of Title Tags, Meta Description and the actually page content. So if they're flagged as duplicates its just a matter of reading the pages or giving them a quick glance to see how similar they are.

Crawling issue
Hi, I have to set up a campaign for a webshop. This webshop is a subdomain itself. First question: The two subfolders I need to track are /nl_BE and /fr_BE. What is the best way to handle this? Shall I set up two different campaigns for each subfolder, or shall I just make one campaign and add tags to keywords? **Second question: **it seems like Moz can't crawl enough pages. There are no disallows in the robots.txt. Should I try putting the following at the top into my robots.txt? User-agent: rogerbot

Disallow: Or is it because I want to crawl only a subdomain that it doesn't work? Thanks0 -
Problem with duplicate titles
Hi there, after a site crawl Moz has reported that I have duplicated titles, however I don't understand why or how to fix it. Basically the urls are for the same collection or product and are identical except one has a -1 on the end of it or sometimes a %20. I cannot delete the url as they don't exist in my shopify store so cannot find them. The relevant page has the correct url when I check in shopify. Anyone have any ideas?

When is Previous Month Available in Custom Reports
I was wondering if anyone knows when the previous month is available in the custom reports for a campaign. Specifically, on the 'Add Modules' page my date drop-down has Weekly (Aug 22 - 28) and Monthly (July 2017). I just need to know when Monthly (August 2017) would be available. Thanks.

How do I add the date range to the PDF reports?
Sorry, I know this is a silly question but I have added the modules that I want for each domain's weekly report. The reports are generating and mailing as they should be but it doesn't display the date range of the report anywhere. I have them set to weekly reports but it should definitely show the date range of the information included in the report. Am I missing something or do I have to add to the top? If so, how do I add that? I am thinking it should be the first thing on the reports.
