Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
-
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands.
My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007.
I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here?
One error that really stands out is this:
Description
<dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd>
On my root page I have:
rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/>
Thanks for any help...

Thats not the ones you get with a pro account, but it prooably does much the same.
I use the Bing SEO Toolkit to crawl your site. But SEOMoz should find much the same

Can you tell me where to look for SEOMoz list of broken links?
-
I found over 300 broken links, that was only a sample, i would suggest there is many more.
Hiow many did SEOMoz report.

removed link name
-
What is the URL i will tell you if they are real of not.
-
Yes it is a "notice", so it is just information to me not an error.
Thank you!
I also have several 404 Red Status Codes any idea what these are?
I read the recent posts about them and that they may disappear on a future crawl...

This canonical error is a notive not a error correct?
if so it is just letting you know they are there, it is important you dont have canonicals in pages and not know.
Canonicals in every page pointing to itself was seen as a good idea to help protect against screen scaping, but recently Bing has said that it is a incorrect use and that they will lose trust in your canonicls if used in this way.

Since July 1, we've had a HUGE jump in errors on our weekly crawl. We don't think anything has changed on our website. Has MOZ changed something that would account for a large leap in duplicate content and duplicate title errors?
Our error report went from 1,900 to 18,000 in one swoop, starting right around the first of July. The errors are duplicate content and duplicate title, as if it does not see our 301 redirects. Any insights?

OK Crawl Test Link Question Again!
I've downloaded a crawl test and column G Link Count reads 62 and yep there are a total of 62 links on the page in question. Column AM Internal Links reads 303 and yep there are somewhere in the order of 303 pages pointing at this one. Root Domains is surprisingly low at 6, so maybe there are only 6 domains linking to this page. BUT... External Links read 51. There are not 51 links pointing away from this domain on this page, no way hozay, so can anybody tell me what is meant by 'External Links? A humble thank you in anticipation of an education. Jem

Can anybody point me to an OSE tutorial blog on Competitive Analysis?
I came across a few blogs which got me started here on an SEOmoz Pro account and now I am working on building a competitive link analysis spreadsheet in Excel in order to identify how are competitors are beating us in Google rankings for specific keywords. One article I came across seemed to do exactly what I wanted, but the images are all broken and the downloads require a membership to some service I am not interested in: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/how-are-they-beating-you-quick-seo-analysis-tools-part-1/ Anybody have any resources like this they can share? Thank you.
