      I am new, and I just got back my crawl results (after a week or more).

      The first thing I noticed is that the "duplicate page title" is in the thousands, my urls and page titles are different.

      The only thing I can see is that our company name is at appended to the name of every title.

      I did search and found one other person with this problem, but no answer was given.

      Can anyone offer some advice? This doesn't seem right...

      Thanks,

          Did you look at the pages themselves that they are showing the link to? I had the same problem when I started and it was because of the dynamic linking. RogerBot was able to crawl through pages that were auto generated, example a previous page link that would allow you to go back 6 years by stepping through each month, I figure no human would follow that link when it said "There is no data for this or any previous month", however a bot would just keep going and see duplicate content pages.

          Note that there are "Duplicate Content" and "Duplicate Title" items, what you explain with the company title would be a duplicate title issue.

            I edited my question, the specific error is with "duplicate page title" not content

              In that case I would be curious what the answer is as well because I have the same situation with pages that are named "Example Title | Page 1 | Company Name", "Example Title | Page 2 | Company Name". I'm assuming the algorithm looks the percentage difference to dictate whether a title is different, not the actual different.

              The above would drop over 500 Duplicate Page Title errors if the Page 1 & 2 were considered actually different.
