About Duplicate Content found by SEOMOZ... that is not duplicate
-
Hi folks,
I am hunting for duplicate content based on SEOMOZ great tool for that
I have some pages that are mentioned as duplicate but I cant say why.
They are video page. The content is minimalistic so I guess it might be because all the navigation is the same but for instance
http://www.nuxeo.com/en/resource-center/Videos/Nuxeo-World-2010/Nuxeo-World-2010-Presentation-Thierry-Delprat-CTO
and
http://www.nuxeo.com/en/resource-center/Videos/Nuxeo-World-2010/Nuxeo-World-2010-Presentation-Cheryl-McKinnon-CMO
are mentioned as duplicate.
Any idea?
Is it hurting?
Cheers,

Thanks Kane, Aran,
We will try to do that!

I agree with Kane, in addition to the description, why not produce a transcript of any spoken words in the videos? (not everyone has speakers plugged in).
If its good enough for SEOmoz whiteboard fridays its good enough for me

I only see one sentence before each video that has unique content on the pages. I ran the two URLs through this tool: http://www.webconfs.com/similar-page-checker.php and it reports 98% similarity. I'm guessing it's based entirely on text, which is likely what SEOmoz is based on.
The good news is that it's easy to fix. One video is 20 minutes long, and one video is 40 minutes long. Write at least a paragraph of good description about what the topic of each video is, and add that to the page.
Bonus points if you write more than one paragraph for each page, and 100x bonus points if you provide a transcription of the speech.
Once you do that the duplicate content error will go away, and you'll have better luck with getting traffic to those pages if that's a goal.

Duplicate content across two websites
Hi. I'm looking at ways to compare duplicate content across two different websites instead of one, as with the Moz crawler. Instead it will flag up up duplicates present on both site A and B.

SEOmoz Not Picking Up Links
I'm finding that SEOmoz often doesn't pick up on many of the links my client's websites are attaining. The links do appear in search engine and often have a high domain authority (often PR links, which I why I follow up to see if they've been picked up). I do tend to see many of the links appear in webmaster tools, so it's a little frustrating that they don't appear, even after months of pages being live. Thoughts?

What user agent is used by SEOMOZ crawler?
We have a pretty tight robots.txt file in place to only allow the major search engines. I do not want to block SEOMOZ.ORG from being able to crawl the site so I want to make sure the user agent is open.

Plurals and the SEOmoz On Page Report Card
I have some pages on my website that receive an "A" grade with the SEOmoz On Page Report Card if I use a plural term in a phrase (say, "landscape designers in Dallas") but an "F" grade if I use the singular term (say, "landscape designer in Dallas"). Is this a true and accurate reflection of how search engines see the page? Am I going to rank well for plural terms but not for singular, given the specific on-page content I'm using in this example? Or is this an opportunity for SEOmoz to tweak its' algorithm to better reflect the search engines?

SEOMoz Crawling Only 1 Page
I entered a new site into my dashboard 2 days ago - everything looked kosher, there were a few hundred pages crawled and a whole bunch of errors. I came back this morning to start work on the site and SEOMoz has crawled the site again, this time returning only 1 page and 0 errors. I haven't even logged in to the site since the first crawl, so I couldn't have broken anything. Has anyone seen this before?

About NOFOLLOW tag for SEOmoz analysis
Hi all, Another issue while trying to resolve all the duplicate content SEOmoz reports to me. May be some of you guys can help: I have a dynamic error page on our website, generated in case of error, that can happen on many urls. Of course that one should not be indexed. I added the following tag on the HEADER: name="robots" content="NOODP,NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW" /> To me this should prevent from having this page indexed, but also from having this page reported by SEOmoz analyzer as duplicate content. Any hints?

SEOMoz Campaign Tool
I've noticed that when looking at the SEOmoz tool, specifically the On Page analysis tool, it is still looking at an old url. About two months ago I made updates to all of our category page URLs. Previously the old urls were stuffed with keywords, strange characters and were really long. When looking at the on-page tool though it is referencing the old urls for keywords and I'm wondering why? I figure its been long enough to recognize the new urls. Is the paring of a keyword and a url saved and just graded on a weekly basis to produce the report? I had expected to see the new url's by now which are also represented in the sitemap. Around that same time I also added our TellAFriend Page and Review pages to our Robots.txt file as not to be crawled but I still see these pages come up in the errors report. Should this update as well?
