I don't get what a dynamic URL is?
-
I have a whole bunch of them and I have no idea how I created them. I just make titles, that's it. Nothin' fancy.

Hi
Nice photos by the way
How do you arrive at the pages with the dynamic URLs? Try signing out of WordPress and viewing the site while not logged in.
You have the canonical tag in place, so honestly, there is no duplicate content issue. I'm just curious how you discovered the different URLs? That's not usually something a normal user browsing the site will see, at least not what I've seen with WordPress anyway.

EDIT: It just occurred to me, you probably found these URLs in the SEOmoz campaign tools?

I don't know how they're creating themselves? It's like 1 post has several of them?!

(etc etc.)
And btw... I don't intentionally have a slideshow set up, but I do have Next Gen on my site?

A dynamic URL usually has something called a query string. In your URL, it's everything after the ? and is typically used to pass data to a programming language.
Some sites use mod_rewrite to change them to look less program related
It's important to note that ANY change in the query string will make Google see that page as distinct, even if there's nothing else different. If you have an issue with this type of duplication you should use canonical to narrow down your pages to just those with distinct content.
If you're adding titles (like to a Wordpress blog) it's possible that you're creating pages and your CMS program makes URLs based on titles
domain.com/blog/the-best-blog-topic-ever
Is that what you're referring to?

Change the labels' name
Hello, I defined various labels and linked them to groups of keywords. Nevertheless, I'd like to change the name of one label, but it seems to be impossible. How could I do ? Thanks,

Looking For URL Anchor Text Metrics Definitions
Running some keyword difficulty reports that are showing some interesting data around URL Anchor Text Metrics. But ti fully understand them, I need some definitions, which I cannot find anyone. So can someone point me to definitions of these terms: Exact Anchor Text Links % Links w/ Exact Anchor Text Linking Root Domains w/ Exact Anchor Text % Linking Root Domains w/ Exact Anchor Text Partial Anchor Text Links % Links w/ Partial Anchor Text Partial Anchor Text Root Doms. % Linking Root Domains w/ Partial Anchor Text Also, if say Exact Anchor Text Links is bolded purple, that means that URL has more Exact Anchor Text Links than any other URL in the report. Is that correct? Thanx David

I did a redirect and now I'm getting duplication errors.
I was told by SEO Moz to do a redirect so that our website would be crawled with and without the www in front of the address. I did and now I'm getting duplicate page and title errors because the crawler is seeing www.oursitename.com and its underpages and oursitename.com and its underpages and giving me duplicate page content errors and duplicate page title errors. Makes sense, but how do I make it stop? Anyone else have this problem?

The keyword ranking report takes into account all my website urls? Can I specify the URLs where I want to track the keywords?
I don't know if my weekly reports are reporting the ranking of my keywords correctly. I have added some new keywords, since that all my reports are in red numbers. I don't know if this is happening because I did something wrong, or if is because my rankings are really falling down.

Why can't I change the domain being tracked in my campaign?
Apologies if this has already been answered a million times and/or if I'm posting this in the wrong place... I did look, but couldn't find the answer anywhere... I just realized that all this time I have been tracking www.mydomain.com in my campaign for a long time now, while I should probably have been tracking *.mydomain.com. I wanted to change this, but it looks like I can't. If I have to set up a whole new campaign, with all of the same keywords, competitive sites to track, etc., that will take forever. Why can't I just change it so that my campaign starts tracking *.mydomain.com instead of www.mydomain.com from now on? Thank you!

What's Your SEOmoz Favorite?
Obviously, SEOmoz is full of awesomeness. But I'm curious as to what sections, tools, etc. of SEOmoz are the users' favorites? For me, it's a close race between the blog, Linkscape/Open Site Explorer, and the search overlay tool on the Mozbar. What are your favorites?
