      I just got my first seomoz crawl report and was shocked at all the errors it generated.

      I looked into it and saw 7200 crawl errors.

      Most of them are duplicate page titles and duplicate page content.

      I clicked into the report and found that 97% of the errors were going off of one page

      It has

      http://legendzelda.net/forums/index.php/members/page__sort_key__joined__sort_order__asc__max_results__20__quickjump__A__name_box__begins__name__A__quickjump__E

      etc

      Has 20 pages of slight variations of this link. It is all my members list or a search of my members list so it is not really duplicate content or anything.

      How can I get these errors to go away and make search my site is not taking a hit? The forum software I use is IPB.

        These member profiles etc cause a lot of problems. I just restricted the crawler from forums/*/members and it fixed A LOT of problems. I don't see value in Google having access to the members list on the forums and it is a common 'blackhat' technique to sneak links into profiles on forums.

            I wish there was a nicer solution to that, but that's the least painful way. 😉
