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.

I have a duplicate content on my Moz crawler, but google hasn't indexed those pages: do I still need to get rid of the tags?
I received an urgent error from the Moz crawler that I have duplicate content on my site due to the tags I have. For example: http://www.1forjustice.com/graves-amendment/ The real article found here: http://www.1forjustice.com/car-accident-rental-car/ I didn't think this was a big deal, because when I looked at my GWT these pages weren't indexed (picture attached). Question: should I bother fixing this from an SEO perspective? If Google isn't indexing the pages, then am I losing link juice? 6c2kxiZ

Domain and Page authority dropped on home page
My two strongest links did not show up in the latest Open Site Explorer run. Business.com and BOTW.com...Linking domains went from 21 to 15. Domain dropped 3 pts and Page authority dropped 3 pts I believe. Is there a function in SEOmoz.org that lets you track your domain scores over time? Thanks, Boo

To Many Links on site
I've had an issue with to many links on the site. My drop down menu, secondary footer and footer. The report told me that I had 253 links on each page. I then programmed my secondary footer to dynamic and ran a crawl and my links reduced accordingly to 201. Then turned the footer into dynamic and ran a crawl with my links increasing to 1500. This also happened between each phase but en went away. Oddly enough, my domain authority increased as well as other factors in the crawl report. This too many links thing is driving me crazy. Please provide some guidance.

How long would a SEOMoz crawl usually take for a site with around 4000 pages?
We are working through optimising a site for one of our clients and the SEOMoz crawl progress says it has been running since the 8th Feburary. It's now almost a week later and it still hasn't finished. The first run took a few days, is there any way of restarting the process?

Is the Linkscape Index getting updated?
I know it only gets a big refresh once a month...The last being in the early part of January. But I released a map that went viral (front page of CNET, Wired, Scientific American) that has gotten me hundreds of links from different domains: https://www.google.com/search?q=perceptionbuilder.com+map I got these links in early to mid December and OSE is showing no data at all. Similarly, I have been doing some linkbuilding for clients and links that I got in October and November and those links aren't showing up either. Anyone else experiencing this? Many thanks, Matt

Only 1 page is being crawled by SEOmoz for the last 2 crawls
I would like to ask for the possible problem plus solution on one of our campaigns. Only 1 page is being crawled by SEOmoz for the last 2 crawls. Before the last two crawls, SEOmoz crawls numerous pages and we can’t think of a possible reason for this error. For this particular campaign , there are no data --- no errors, warnings and notices. Thanks!

SEOmoz pro campaign keyword rankings.
Using the tools in the SEOmoz pro repertoire I have inserted keywords. Will the rankings tool show me the rankings for any of my pages on the site that have listed for this keyword, or just the home page?
