Magento: Moz finding URL and URL?p=1 as duplicate. Solution?
-
Good day Mozzers!
Moz bot is finding URL's in the Catalogue pages with the format www.example.com/something and www.example.com/something?p=1 as duplicate (since they are the same page)
Whats the best solution to implement here? Canonical? Any other?
Cheers!

This is a popular plugin for managing parameters and faceted navigation in Magento: http://amasty.com/improved-navigation.html. I have read quite a few reviews on this plugin, and it seems to be referenced quite often (however I don't have experience with it).
This paired with some robots.txt should do the trick.
Hope this helps!

This is for the category pages. Since we have many products in the category, there are many pages as well. We are currently using rel next prev, but not canonical. The problem is that Magento generates two URLs for the first category page for all categories:
I dont see how we could block these in robots.txt or parameters, because then they wouldnt be crawled at all?
-
I agree. Use robots to filter out bad urls, and set your url parameters in webmaster tools. Careful if you dont know how to use this, as you can potentially get rid of urls you want. Read up on it first.
-
Is there only one page? Is there a www.example.com/something?p=2 and www.example.com/something?p=3 as well? If this is the case, you may want to look into rel="prev/next".

Canonical will help yes, but also if the pages ARE duplicate content, you can block them in robots and let Google know in Webmasters Tools under URL Parameters.

How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ Campaigns?
Good morning Mozzers from the London, England. This may be a silly question to many of the community, but here goes "How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ campaigns?" I work in the gyms section in the UK and am tracking keywords like "Gyms in Liverpool" or "Manchester gyms" which send me some traffic. I can see search terms like the above do send me traffic from Google's Webmaster Tools, but obviously this tool won't highlight the keyword opportunities I am missing out on because I currently don't rank. Any guidance on this dilemma would be hugely appreciated, Kindest regards Ben

Stupid question: why SEOMOz has become MOZ?
According to their On-Page Report Card the URL should include the main keyword i.e. SEO in their case, so why do they get an F grade If I check their main page www.moz.com for the keyword SEO? Thanks for your comments!

Moz is incorrect
So i have had my latest crawl, and the keyword report is showing that using google.co.uk i have some keywords not within the top 50 - i have just done a spot check (coping & pasting) direct from Moz to google.co.uk and out of 4 i have checked 1 keyword i am number 4 and 1 keyword i am page 3 - therefore within the top 50. This leads me to believe that there is something wrong with Moz - here is 1 example "land in the cayman islands" i am showing in moz as not in the top 50 when i am showing on Google as number.4

Using api to find likes, tweets and shares
Hi all, I have a question regarding using the API to get data on a list of urls and not one by one. I am not a developer so I might not grasp the API so well. Basically I have a list of urls, what I need from each is the following information: <colgroup><col width="98"><col width="89"><col width="92"><col width="111"><col width="99"><col width="50"><col width="64"></colgroup>

| Page authority | linking root domains | total links | Facebook Shares | Facebook likes | tweets | Google+1's | I found a google doc that gives me SOME of the data but not all (also it might be old as it uses the linkscape call (I dont know if thats changed)) Any idea how I can tune my googledoc spreadsheet to include the additional metrics? Thanks 🙂0 -
How to find highest PR pages by search term?
is there a search operator in google to sort by highest PR, or an alternate search engine (besides Google directory) to find high PR sites by keyword? I am sending free product out to webmasters to use as a giveaway for their audience, and would like to find the highest PR sites/pages to partner with. I want the highest SEO value out of the products I send out. I'm trying to find outdoor sports related sites, etc, which have done contests/giveaways in the past and linked well to the supplier of the prize. I've been just googling phrases like "backpack giveaway", etc. and this has worked ok, but I'd like to find a tool to search for the highest PR sites around each of the phrases.
