Welcome to the Q&A Forum

yes, inbound links are those coming from other sites - and quality is important there- as well as diversity, both in the types of links as well as ensuring to keep the majority of links coming from as many independently separate domains as possible.

With "overly dynamic pages" means the search engines might have a problem crawling them. They will not hurt your seo unless they have poor content, duplicate content etc. So if I were you I wouldn't worry too much. However if you don't want these pages crawled you can exclude them in your robots.txt file. Also add a meta tag in the header of these pages to have them removed from the index. http://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html

not sure if this is any help to anyone but I have almost the same issue but it's a 500 error and the description says: Traceback (most recent call last): File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/downpour/init.py", line 391, in _error failure.raiseException() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/python/failure.py", line 370, in raiseException raise self.type, self.value, self.tb Error: 500 Internal Server Error Talking to my hosting provider they said when the seomoz bot crawled my site it put my cpu usage over 25% causing the errors...  We will see if this happens on Sunday.

Hi Bob, If I understand correctly you have some pages on your website that generate some report in some other place and immediately afterwards redirect themselves to this new report. I think it depends on how important these pages are whether or not this is a problem. If for example a landing page returns a 302 status, that´s a problem. However, if the page generating the report and redirecting itself does not need to be indexed it´s not really an isseu. You might want to add a rel="nofollow" to the buttons and links that point to the page generating the text reports.

One of the most valuable things for me is the 'seo toolbar', I use this ALL THE TIME for checking blogs to guest post on - I use myblogguest and usually receive between 5-10 offers, when 2 offers are very similar I use the tool bar to make my decision. When I do this for guest blogging I see very good results, sometimes a blog may look visually better but could have a DA/PA 18-23 against a blog that looks rubbish but has DA/PA 50-60, I would have never known this without the tool bar. I also use it to work out roughly how much more work is involved to jump rankings by comparing my stats against ones above me in the results.

Bob-   Probably redirects......make sure you set up separate sitemaps for each site and then view the sitemap to make sure that you dont have overlap. Hope this helps.

Searching the SEOmoz blog itself can turn up some interesting resources. This is a site audit checklist for looking at an existing site: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-to-do-a-site-audit.

Just adding to previous comments, both a 301-redirect or canonical tag should work here. Traditionally, we tend to suggest a 301-redirect for critical pages, but the canonical can sweep up other variants of the home-page (and it's common to have variations, like tracking parameters, https: versions, etc.), so I've gradually moved that direction. In your case, the trick is that you're driving other content off of "default.asp", such as: http://www.etraxc.com/default.asp?demo=part I'm not clear if that's a unique page or if it's also a partial duplicate. If those pages are unique and you use the canonical tag, you'd knock those pages out of the index, so it would probably be the wrong choice here. If those are unintentional duplicates or low-value, then canonical is probably a good bet. Even if you fix your internal links (which is the right thing to do), it's still good to sweep up the bad copies in Google's index, so I'd implement one of the fixes.
