Why are my Duplicated Pages not being updated?

[ckroaster]

I've recently changed a bunch of duplicated pages from our site.  I did get a slightly minimized amount of duplicated pages, however, some of the pages that I've already fixed are still unfixed according to MOZ.  Whenever I check the back-end of each of these pages, I see that they've already been changed and non of them are the same in terms of Meta Tag Title is concern.

Can anyone provide any suggestions on what I should do to get a more accurate result? Is there a process that I'm missing?

Hi Ronald,

When did you make these changes.  When you change something, it doesn't immediately take effect.  It takes a while and the time varies.  Be patient and wait.

Hope you will see the changes soon.

Usually it takes a few days to update the report with the changes you have made! If you think that its more than a week and your files are still not updated in that case it is a good idea to email Moz support at help@moz.com

hope this helps!

Moz doesn't check only on the title or other meta tags. You could have an entirely different title and if the page content is the same it will bring up a duplicate content flag.

As an example, on our blog we had duplicate content alerts between categories and tag pages (ie Category page 2 had the same content as tag page 20). Instead of changing the contents of the pages (as it was nearly impossible) we decided to add a meta noindex to the tag pages. All duplicate content issues resolved

Anyway, Moz crawls your page once a week, if you did the changes recently, check the date of the last crawl under your campaign overview.
