SEOmoz tool Issue?

[Ideas-Money-Art]

Hi Mozzers,

I am doing a web maintenance task for a client and it's been weeks that Moz is detecting 49 duplicate pages ( contact page). I thought resolving the issue when creating the xml sitemap and excluding those duplicates. The moz tool would still detect them, so I went in making a search with some of these duplicate to check if they were indexed but non of them were indexed.

So my question is has anyone recently experienced similar issues? Is the moz tool not 100% accurate?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and answers

When we crawl, we don't look at a site map, but instead go through and crawl your site. Somehow there must be links to those URLs that aren't excluded in robots.txt that we're picking up. If you care to share your site here the community can look at it and give you some ideas. If you prefer not to share your site, drop a note to help@seomoz.org and we'll help you figure it out that way.
