Why is Moz Crawl Diagnostics labelling pages as duplicate when they appear to be different?
-
Moz Crawl Diagnostics is flagging some pages on the Doorfit website as duplicate, yet the page content is completely different and not identical.
Example.
Page: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/locks-security/secondary-security
Duplicate: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/seals-and-sealants?cat=279
Does anybody have any suggestions as to why this might be the case?
Thanks

I think that it is a good possibility. I wouldn't put Canonical tags on the product page however. The product page isn't the same as the category page, the html coding is just very similar between the two.
-
Thanks for the answer!
Do you think this might be the case for this example as well?
-
I would add some content to these pages. When you look at the source code of those pages the html coding is almost identical. That is most likely what is causing the duplicate content error. There is no text to html ratio, it is all html coding.

Unsolved Page Optimization Loop
When I am trying to optimise a page within MOZ this message box appears: dcf38be5-eff4-4317-87ab-ab560e8fea7c-image.png I click 'Track Keyword' and it just loops round with the same message over and over again. I have already added this particular keyword to be tracked but I still get the error message. Can anyone help?

Hi everyone ! I'm loyal user of moz pro from January 2013. I appreciate that moz what to innovate with Moz Analytics but I think that it's lot of mess ! Activated campaigns become archived, deleted keywords come back ... and lot of time I couldn't access to my account. the worst thing is that I didn't get any answers from support team after weeks ! I was thinking to upgrade my account but this discourages me !
