Too many pages indexed in SEOMoz
-
I am running a campaign for a client that has 86 pages via Google and SEmoz is up to almost 10K pages. I am really confused. Any ideas?
-
I also recommend that you consult help@seomoz.org. you will have a professional, respond quickly and will not have to share theinfo of your client.

Thanks Keri.
It does look like duplicate url parameters.

Thanks I did do this. It does look like duplicate url parameters.

Do you know how many pages the client is supposed to have? If they have 100 or so pages, one guess would be that there's an issue with URL parameters creating a ton of duplicate content, or there's a calendar application that's causing endless pages.
As it's a client, I imagine you can't share the URL with us. If you're not seeing any messages in your campaign about duplicate content or other hints, I'd email help@seomoz.org and ask them to take a look at it.

Have you looked at the errors in the campaign? I would suspect you have some duplicate content issues. For example, does your client serve the same page for the following instead of redirecting to the same URL?
- example.com
- example.com/
- example.com/index.php (or .html, or just /index)
- www.example.com
- www.example.com/
- www.example.com/index.php (or .html, or just /index)
There are many more that it could be finding. Drill in to this campaign, and click the subtab for Crawl Diagnostics. Then find the Duplicate Page Content error and drill into that. It should give you an idea as to what's going on.

Pages with URL Too Long
Hello Mozzers! MOZ keeps kindly telling me the URLs are too long. However, this is largely due to the structure of E-commerce site, which has to include 'brand' 'range' and 'products' keyword. For example -

https://www.choicefurnituresuperstore.co.uk/Devonshire-Rustic-Oak-Bedside-Cabinet-1-Drawer-p40668.html MOZ recommends no more than 75 characters. This means we have 25-30 characters for both the brand name and product name. Questions:
If it is an issue, how to fix it on my site?
If it's not an issue, how can we turn off this alert from MOZ?
Anyone know how big an issue URLs are as a ranking factor? I thought pretty low.0 -
Page Rank Report says #6 in Google but I can't find the page anywhere
So SEOMoz says that I've consistently ranked #6 for a certain keyword. But when I search I'm no where to be found. I've done regular searches, incognito and some non-seomoz reports and all come up with nothing in Google. I noticed it a week or two ago, but didn't think it would continue. This is no bueno. I wouldn't be surprised if I got penalized (luckily my homepage relatively well for similar keywords), an old seo consultant used very spammy tactics. I recently removed them, but not before I started to notice that I fell off the map. Why would SEOMoz not recognize this, and continue to say I'm ranking well? The keyword is bpi building analyst the page is http://www.cleanedison.com/courses/bpi-building-analyst

Moztool and on page ranking matching
How does the Moztool compare and filter the search phrases you enter in your campaign? Or more correctly, will it filter out stop words or is it an exact match? For example I enter a phrase to track that say: "book ski trip austria" Identified in Google I see that most users search for just that "book ski trip austria" But in content, I cant write that as that is uncorrect english and I want to maby write something like: "When you book a ski trip to austria you get..." How will this affect my on page SEO report, will it still match and mark a "V" in done or show a an error? Even more interesting is, what happen if you do phrases in different order like "An austrian skip trip will make you feel..."

What is the difference between the Rank Tracker and the On-page Optimization page?
Both of them track keywords. In the Rank Tracker, you add each keyword manually and you associate it with a URL. For On-page Optimization page, the URLs are generated automatically based on searches and traffic?

I've used the on page grade and now have all my pages at a grade A for relevant keywords. Most of them are cool, achieveing first page rankings apart from a few massive keywords. So the question is, what's next? What do i do now that I'm at grade A, but perhaps not #1 yet... Cheers -dan
