How to resolve when it is saying duplicate content but the content is not duplicate?

Especially since it is our landing page for our blog with multiple excerpt text i.e. growpath.com/resources/

You need to understand that today there are roughly millions of articles, blogs, and web copies already published for content marketing. Many online writers have already written about information that you are thinking about writing.
Checkout the plagiarism level via a tool. It is best to use a premium level tool and see if the content is around 80% to 85% unique and has a rate of 15% plagiarism. Lower than 70% uniqueness can be troubling. So, try and rephrase some words but to not make things too much complicated.
In best case scenario, try to choose topics that are unique, it all depends on your creativity level. Good luck!

I have encountered this in the past. If you KNOW it is not duplicate, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Having said that, in my cases, I just re-wrote the content (very minor changes) and the duplicate content warning went away - all good. Just my 2 cents. Best of luck

My duplicate pages are mostly Tag pages...what are best practices?
As I'm looking through my Moz Pro reports on Pages with Duplicate Content, almost all the results are from the automatically created "tag" pages from my blog. I.e., takeflyte.com/flyte/tags/kickapps Should I worry about this? Does it have a negative impact in my search visibility? Should I be using canonical tags on these pages (and if so, pointing them where if there's multiple pages that use the same tags?) How would you recommend handling this issue?

Duplicate page content on Moz PRO - http://www and http:// problem
Hi Moz community, My Moz Pro writes 555 duplicate content errors, when i click on the page address to check witch page duplicate, it gives me the same page address without WWW. http://www.domain.com/page Duplicated: http://domain.com/page The first thing i checked is my .Htaccess file.. , I found out i have a www redirection that redirect everyone without the "www" to the full domain with the "www" - and it works perfectly on the browser. The code that redirect: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.

I realise the pages dont have much difference between them but would these pages be considered close enough to be duplicates http://www.youlesmotorcycles.com/clothing-male/reflective-clothing-non-tri http://www.youlesmotorcycles.com/accessories/luggage-hard0 -
Why is Moz Crawl Diagnostics labelling pages as duplicate when they appear to be different?
Moz Crawl Diagnostics is flagging some pages on the Doorfit website as duplicate, yet the page content is completely different and not identical. Example. Page: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/locks-security/secondary-security Duplicate: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/seals-and-sealants?cat=279 Does anybody have any suggestions as to why this might be the case? Thanks

How do I pull a report to show duplicate page content including links to the pages that are duplicates?
I need to send a report to my developers including the url's which have duplicate page content. Unfortunately the Moz download report only includes the pages that are affected by duplicate page content.

Duplicate Page Content Report on Moz - Still ranking in Google Results?
Hi, I am experiencing 2 issues with the Duplicate Page Content in Moz. Every week it is notifying me of new duplicate content - so it seems to be missing duplicate content each week and the crawl is never above the 5000-6000 page mark, which means that it is under 10K which is the limit, so presumably everything is crawled in that one go so surely it should detect all of the dupe content on 1 crawl as opposed to having to do various crawls to detect it no? The dupe content report shows me pages that indeed have duplicate content but after checking, these are ranking on Google for their terms... ? Is the duplicate page content report incremental ? Will it add more duplicate content and increase the report every week or does it just show that week's results? If so, it's a bit like chasing my tail... Help!
