Google plus and 404 error message
-
So this is strange - i created a bunch of pages on Google Plus - and now that I started to use MOZ I noticed that there were 95 404 errors - When I look at them I see the Google+ there ( see example) Has any one experienced this issue? If yes, anyway to fix these 404 errors? or what's the best way to address this issue?http://www.accu-time.com/solutions-2/google.com/+AccuTimeSystemsIncEllington

I'm afraid that I don't know of a way to change these other than finding them all and manually amending them. We do let you know the URLs of the referring pages so you know where to look - this is easier to see if you download the CSV file for these 404 errors from your crawl.
I think the Broken Link Checker Wordpress plugin can also offer you a list of these broken links that you can click through directly to amend them but I don't have any personal experience with this.
Sorry I can't be more help!

I understand and it makes complete sense. Thank you Lisa. One more question - as I don't have someone here to do this for me I'll have to do this myself. What's the best way to amend these links on the wordpress page? Thanks again.

Hi there!
It looks like these 404 errors are coming from improperly formatted links in your html. I've attached an image of these in the example that you gave. As these links do not contain the http:// to tell the browser that they are external to the current site, the URLs are appended to the URL of the current page.
You'll want to find and amend these links as the 404 is also being seen by users if they try to follow them.

Unsolved Problems connecting to different Google Analytics property
I am having problems connecting to different Google Analytics property than the one I originally connected my campaign to. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting to the correct property however 'traffic data' shown is not updating and is still showing data from the original property that i connected to? Can anyone help explain how i can get the data showing in 'traffic' section to update to the current Analytics property that is connected to the campaign? Many thanks.

Solved Duplicate content error affecting 142 pages
Hello,
Product Support | | EISMarketing
Recently I noticed a new duplicate error notification.
This page: https://www.earley.com/insights/internet-things-and-product-data
is flagged as 'duplicate content' with 142 affected pages.
Here's an example of one of the affected pages:
https://www.earley.com/insights/how-ontologies-drive-digital-transformation
This is not an ecommerce site. The affected pages are blog posts. We are pretty prolific writers and over the years we have produced nearly 300 articles. We are a consulting firm and the articles are about our area of expertise and cover a wide range of topics within that space.
I just don't understand why this would be flagged as duplicate or what I'm supposed to do with this information!
Help!
Thanks!

Duplicate Page Content Report on Moz - Still ranking in Google Results?
Hi, I am experiencing 2 issues with the Duplicate Page Content in Moz. Every week it is notifying me of new duplicate content - so it seems to be missing duplicate content each week and the crawl is never above the 5000-6000 page mark, which means that it is under 10K which is the limit, so presumably everything is crawled in that one go so surely it should detect all of the dupe content on 1 crawl as opposed to having to do various crawls to detect it no? The dupe content report shows me pages that indeed have duplicate content but after checking, these are ranking on Google for their terms... ? Is the duplicate page content report incremental ? Will it add more duplicate content and increase the report every week or does it just show that week's results? If so, it's a bit like chasing my tail... Help!
