Www and non www / duplicate content / redirects / www resolve issue
-
I am not getting docked for these specific errors, but I am getting docked for 1 page has a WWW resolve issue and 1 wrong URL in the sitemap... (SEM Rush) but when I use moz, it's not showing any issues.
So I have these things set up so far:
- In .htaccess i have a command that removes the www.
- 301 redirect from www version to the non www (homepage)
- canonical on index.html pointing to non www version, I also set up a canonical tag for each page on the site
- search console with non www, www, https www, https non www all set to non www preference.
Also, when I fetch the www version in google search console it says it's being 301 redirected to non www version which is basically what I want.Is there anything that i'm missing? These errors on SEM Rush are giving me anxiety lol.

How many pages have your website?

Hey there! Tawny from Moz's Help Team here.
Unfortunately, I don't know that I'm actually equipped to answer your question. I can speak to how Moz's tools determine duplicate content, but I don't know how you'd go about implementing solutions for errors you're seeing with SEMrush. Sorry about that!
Hopefully one of our wonderful community members will have more insight than I do. Sorry I couldn't be more help!
If you do have questions about Moz's tools, feel free to give us a shout at help@moz.com and we'll see what we can do.

That is the jyst of it, I removed some of the 301's when I pasted it here, just because it was long.

Why do new issues occur when there have been no updates to the website?
I am unsure on how new issues are created when crawling the site from one crawl to the next. I had assumed the number of issues would remain static if nothing was done from one crawl to the next. Can someone explain how new/additional issues are added from each crawl, even without updates being made? Thanks in advance, Christopher

Moz Bar not providing any data. Tried logging out/back in and un/re-installing, but no dice.
Used Mozbar for a long time, and normally works fine. Suddenly finding that it is not providing any data. All of the fields are there, but it does not provide me with PA/DA, etc, and all social metrics are at 0. This is across all sites, not just on in particular. Have tried logging out and in, deactivating and activating, and reinstalling. Nothing has worked.

Why is the exact same URL being seen as duplicate and showing an error in my SEO reports
Well, I am still having duplicate page issues. I have a question about one of the errors SEO is giving me when I download a crawl report. I am going to attach a screen shot of part of the report so you can see for yourself, along with explaining it here. SEO shows the list of URL's that it crawled in the report. In this(see attachment) portion of the report it has 321 results for the exact same URL. It also says all of these exact same URL's have received a 404 error. What I want to know is how does it make 321 results for the same URL? And with this error that I don't see when I look at the page? 0hkRDST

Duplicate Page and Title Issues
On the last crawl, we received errors for duplicate page titles and some duplicate content pages. Here is the issue: We went through our page titles that were marked as duplicate and changed them to make sure their titles were different. However, we just received a new crawl this week and it is saying there are even more duplicate page title errors detected than before. We're wondering if this is a problem with just us or if it has been happening to other Moz users. As for the duplicate content pages, what is the best way to approach this and see what content is being looked at as a "duplicate" set?

WP 4.0 Update Causing Major Duplicate Content Errors?
According to my moz analytics, my site has went through the roof with duplicate content. There's a nice Mozzer named Abe looking into this with me, but I'm wondering if it could be due to the WP 4.0 update. Has anyone else experienced an uptick like this before? I've never had any problems with the other updates. Thanks, Ruben

Moz Crawl Report showing non-existent Duplicate Errors since new reporting layout
Hi Moz Community, Since Moz changed to the new style of Crawl report, we've seen a jump in duplicate errors for our site. These duplicate errors do not exist and were not present on the Crawl reports before the report change and also we have not made any changes to the flagged pages on our site since then either. When you download the report data in csv it appears that the Moz report is mixing up data for two or more pages on the site. e.g.in csv for 'Page1' data, it will show the meta description for 'Page2' and 'Page2' shows that for 'Page1', so this then gets flagged as duplicate, however looking at the actual Meta description assigned onsite, both Page 1 and Page 2 are completely unique. Has anyone else experienced this and Moz Team - are you looking into this? Thanks, V

CMS Image caching issue
Hi,
Moz Bar | | YelloMedia
We have been monitoring our clients website, the website has been created using Opencart and I believe has some kind of image cache running, which for some reason gets cleared regularly (Though we didn't create the site). Now our problem is the images are getting crawled and then being cleared from the cache, therefore causing 404 errors. Is there anyway to cure this issue? Regards Tom0 -
