        Hi,

        For the duplicate title tags implementing a rel canonical on the product pages should take care of all of the issues you mention. See this post for an explanation and implementation details. You need to be a bit careful in search results pages that have filters on them, but if the only issue is the product page with search filters added to the url then rel canonical should do the trick. Looks like you are using Magento which has rel canoncial available for product pages in the admin under System > Configuration > Catalog > Search Engine Optimizations.

        For the Missing title tag, you seem to have a double quote (") attached to the end of the image url (thats what the %22‎ is). Download the moz error report and find that url in the left hand column, then find out what page is linking to it in the far right hand column. Once you know what page is linking to it, you should be able to figure out where that extra " has been added and remove it.

        Hope that helps!

            Hi,

            Hmm, lets look into this a bit more :).

            For the sid and perhaps some of the other issues it appears you have content available on both the www and non www version of the site. This is usually the situation where the sid parameter get tagged onto the end in magento (open the non www version in a browser then click on the logo, there is your sid). Check out this post on why it happens and how to fix with htaccess. It seems that the www version is the one you are planning on using, is it possible you have set up your campaign as all subdomains? This might account for the issues being shown in the moz report (or else you might be linking to both different versions somewhere in the site like in an onsite banner for example).

            I would suggest seeing to that first, letting the moz crawl run again and then assessing. Chances are the duplicate content warnings will have been reduced and you can then concentrate on the remaining ones which may need to be addressed differently.
