  • Hi there! Thanks for reaching out to us.  I am glad we're giving you some nice traffic.  Unfortunately I don't have access to that information since I am not exactly sure how your filters are set up within your Moz Analytics.  However, you are definitely welcome to check your links index data in your link analysis section of your campaign (http://moz.com/help/pro/link-analysis) or simply use opensiteexplorer.org to see what anchor text and page it comes from exactly on our site. I hope that helps, please let me know if you have other questions...I'm here to help Best, Peter Moz Help Team.

  • When you download your crawl diagnostics as a csv, column A is "URL", column L is the true/flase column for "Duplicate Page Content", and column AF "duplicate_page_content" contains the urls of duplicates to the url in column A. To look at duplicate content, I sort by column L, delete all of the false rows (because they don't have duplicate content), then I delete all of the columns except column A (URL) and column AF (duplicate_page_content), save the spreadsheet as "yyyymmdd-duplicate-content" and work from that. (Easier to see what you are doing without all the other data in the way.) Also note that column AF "duplicate_page_content" can have more than one url in it if you have multiple versions of the same content. In this case I use Excel's "Text to Columns" function (under "Data" in the ribbon) to put each url into its own column so I can deal with them individually. And yes, if there are just small differences Google is likely to see pages as duplicates.

  • Moz can't actually read the canonicals and be sure they are set right as they depend on what do you want to be indexed. I can recall this question asked several times before, Moz support responded: "We prefer to provide data that takes the tack of "rather be safe then sorry" and report on the issues to the highest degree of error that we have seen Google penalize a site for so it is sometimes true that they are not as strict as our tools. It isn't a bug in our system that shows these errors; it is just that we have decided to show errors that Google may consider at their strictest level of penalization." EDIT: I am sure Magento has some extension to manage those urls and allow you to set the products url right so they don't include any of cat-a, featured, detail, etc. Like Wordpress has SEO by Yoast, there's "ultimate SEO suite" for magento.

  • Thanks again Doug - you were spot on. I guess it was lack of understanding between the way Wordpress sees a page and how Moz reads it. It's right now.

  • Hey Sheila, Thanks for the question. You can absolutely get your historic rankings report in a CSV. What you aren't able to do is get a CSV report for the history for just certain keywords. You would need to export the entire ranking history from the Rankings Overview page and narrow down the data using whatever program you use for your CSVs. I hope that helps. Cheers, Joel.

  • I have to second Miki on this. If I were you, I would take it: Duplicate titles Duplicate content On-page links Meta descriptions The on-page links issue may be diluting your link juice, but duplicate titles and content could actually be affecting your indexability. There's likely overlap between the duplicate titles and duplicate content problems, so fixing titles may take care of a lot of the duplicate content; wrap up what's left after the titles are fixed. Take care of the missing meta descriptions after these more systemic issues have been addressed. Good luck!

  • Hey David, Thanks for the question. Unfortunately the Term Extractor was deprecated ~a year ago. I don't know of any plans to resurface that tool but I would encourage you check the feature request forum here: https://seomoz.zendesk.com/forums/293194-Moz-Feature-Requests for any updated information as new things get developed. Thanks! Joel.

  • Well, if Moz is able to find such URLs, these dynamic versions are linked-to from somewhere in your content. This is still not optimal, even if you use rel=canonical. If you can find the source and change these URLs to a non-dynamic version, this will still be better. Otherwise just ignore the warning in the report...

  • Hello Kevin, I have not noticed this issue with the members I've been assisting over the last few days. Can you send your information, including the campaign and/or web address in question to help@moz.com so we can make sure this is not a bug. Sorry for the inconvenience!

  • It could be any number of things. It's possible that you previously had links pointing to the site that were since deleted. Some link checking software will provide you with historical data, so you can see which links have been deleted over time. Won't recommend any here because that's competing software. It could also be some kind of issue with Moz's crawlers. Maybe they haven't or can't crawl your site for whatever reason. I wouldn't lose sleep over a hiccup in mozrank though. I would check on traffic data or maybe look at crawl reports from moz and Google WMT to see if any errors increased recently. If everything looks normal then I wouldn't worry.
