Why has my website gone from 2 duplicate pages to 5000+ duplicate pages n 1 week?

Hi Can anyone please help.
Using the weekly moz reports I realised that my website has gone from 2 duplicate pages to over 5000. As well as this pages with "too long URL" has jumped to over 5000 as well as missing meta tags.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

Download the CSV report and take a look at the URLs to see if they offer a clue. It could be that suddenly there's new pagination or session IDs that are being indexed.

The duplicate content issue you can easily solve by installing Yoast SEO plugin and noindexing the tag pages (you can also noindex categories, archives etc if you need).
Here is a great guide to stetting up the plugin properly and eliminating those page duplication errors http://moz.com/blog/setup-wordpress-for-seo-success
Hope this helps!

Thanks for replying!
I am using a wordpress CMS, however I cannot think of any plugins or anything that I have added over the past couple weeks. Do you know a way to check?
Thans again

What CMS are you using? Could be a problem with a plugin or code.

Moz says my pages don't have rel="canonical" but they do
Hi, I've just had my initial report from Moz and it says my pages are missing rel="canonical". I'm using the Yoast SEO plugin on my WordPress site which adds these automatically. I have also checked the source code for my pages and can see rel="canonical". What has gone wrong please?

Creating a daily to-do list for SEO my website
Hi all, I'm very new here, and I'm quite slow in terms of learning things. Now I've had MOZ for about one and half month, but still only just understand to use on-page grade to SEO my site. I've been spending quite a bit money (for a small business) for online marketing: facebook adverts $50 a day; google adwords $10 a day; MOZ $99 a month... However, the conversion rate isn't ideal... only less than 2% Now what I'm trying to do is, while keep doing the cash burning online adverts, do more SEO on a daily basis. Can I please ask: other than optimise 5 pages' on-page grade, what else should I include into my daily SEO to-do list? Many thanks!

Multiple websites -- one for each brand
I am a MOZ newb, and didn't find answer to the following: We are an enterprise with four distinct brands, each acting as a (reasonably) independent subsidiary. I want to track their performance and report on keyword rankings for the enterprise. Is Moz Analytics capable of this? In Google Analytics, for instance, we have an account for each brand, and multiple properties within each account, and so on. I use 3rd-party dashboard tools to combine multiple accounts into a single report. Can I do something similar here. Thanks in advance.
