      Hi this is my first question and i couldnt find a similar question on here. basically i have a clients website that is showing 150 duplicate page titles and content errors plus others. SEOmoz analysis is showing me for example is 3 duplicate hompage URLS: 1.www.domain.com 2.domain.com 3.www.domain.com/index.html all 3 are the same page. after explaining to the guy (who built the website) the errors, he ensured me that the main URL is URl 1. and the other 2 are 301 redirects. however SEOmoz analysis doesnt seem to change the results and webmastertools doesnt seem to show any errors at all. also if i try all 3 URL's there are no redirects to URL 1. any help or clarity would be awesome! Thanks e-bob

        HI,

        If you can provide your URL then I can check the redirects for you, or you can try the 3 url's using this tool

        http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/

        It sounds like the 301 hasn't been implemented correctly as SEOMoz should pick that up.

          Hi Bob,

          If Seomoz is picking up errors that Googlebot isn't then it could be something to do with your robots.txt, maybe you have it blocking one part of your site for Googlebot, however rogerbot isn't blocked so it is picking up errors that Google can't reach. I also believe that Rogerbot is a little bit more strict as well so this could also be why.

          For the 301 problem it seems like they haven't been installed correctly, if you can access URL 3 and 2 without being sent straight to URL 1 by your browser then the 301 has failed.

          Kyle
