Moz Crawl Report showing non-existent Duplicate Errors since new reporting layout
-
Hi Moz Community,
Since Moz changed to the new style of Crawl report, we've seen a jump in duplicate errors for our site. These duplicate errors do not exist and were not present on the Crawl reports before the report change and also we have not made any changes to the flagged pages on our site since then either.
When you download the report data in csv it appears that the Moz report is mixing up data for two or more pages on the site. e.g.in csv for 'Page1' data, it will show the meta description for 'Page2' and 'Page2' shows that for 'Page1', so this then gets flagged as duplicate, however looking at the actual Meta description assigned onsite, both Page 1 and Page 2 are completely unique.
Has anyone else experienced this and Moz Team - are you looking into this?
Thanks,
V

Hey Patricia,
Thanks for writing in and sorry that you are seeing strange data in your crawl diagnostics. We haven't made any changes that would affect the crawl in the way you are describing, so we will definitely need to look into this further. I am going to create a ticket in our email system so that I can get a few specific examples for you and investigate more directly. You should be receiving an email from me shortly and you can reply directly there.

Reworked the keyword strategy - affect on reports
Hello, We're ditching our current keyword strategy and starting over. The reports have been running for about 3 months though. Will our ranking reports factor in those keywords that have been removed? We really only want to see where are campaign is from the new starting point. Or, do I just need to narrow the time frame on my reports. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

Past reports?
I have a customer report set up for a client set to send weekly. A couple of weeks ago we didn't get the report and nor did we. I can't see a reason why and I can't see a way to get hold of past reports. Does anyone have any idea of how to do this or if it's even possible?

Duplicate Page Title query in the PRO Campaign tool
Can someone help me on this. I am seeing duplicate page titles on the PRO Campaign Crawl tool on an ecommerce site for example MOZ is saying that these two pages have a duplicate page title: http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/snap-picture-poster-frames/colour-25mm-snap-frames/green-25mm-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html They are the the same product in two categories. When I view the source of both pages the this link is the same in the meta: <link rel="<a class="attribute-value">canonical</a>" href="[http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html](view-source:http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/colour-25mm-snap-frames/25mm-green-snap-frame/a0-traffic-green-snap-frame-25mm/prod_1730.html)" /> So is there something else I need to have done to erradicate this or is it not an issue? Thanks in advance Tracy

Beta Moz is losing my campaigns.
I've been trying to make the transition to Beta especially now that Pro has such serious problems with the style sheet. The thing is, all of the campaigns I have added to the Pro side don't show up in the Beta side. They'll show in Pro but that's all but unusable on my end and there's no Archive button visible on Beta. I tried adding a campaign again to Beta thinking it just isn't there, but it tells me it's already been added. Well then were is it? I just added them earlier today! I can see them on Pro but nowhere on Beta, nor the other 3 I have added on Pro in the last 2 weeks.

Moz showing warnings for each dynamic link despite canonicalization?
As you can see in the attached image, Moz is showing a warning for each dynamic URL despite a rel=canonical tag. Is this by design? If so, it is frustrating seeing as it is really just the one page with many links . . . 9h5oDmr.png
