Way too many 301 redirects
-
Hi Guys
Posting here again in regard to 301 redirects, SEOMOZ has just finished my second crawl, and its showing me nearly 4k 301 redirects, i am only tracking my new site which by the way changed domain name , however all im doing is tracking the new domain and there are no 301 implemented on that side (Except Canonical), so was wondering how SEOMoz is finding 4k of redirects.
do you think it could be chaining somewhere ? as all the tests look good or could there be a problem with the reporting

HI Doug
Posted twice on this subject and the other 2 are here http://www.seomoz.org/q/301-redirect-how-long-until-the-juice-passes-through-to-new-site
I have checked server logs and response headers and everything looks absolutely correct, not used screaming frog but have used Xeno
I have been complaining for now 10 weeks that i have no traffic since i did the 301, and as i said im only reporting on the new site now which n theory should be 301 clean, except the canonical element part
I am now convinced there is a issue as otherwise the crawl from SEOmoz would not pick up those redirects,

It's hard to say without knowing the detail. Which site/pages?
You say that you've moved the site to a new domain name - is it possible that you've got some links in there somewhere that are still pointing to the old domain and being redirected back?
Have you tried spidering your own site with something like Screaming Frog or taking a look at your server logs for the redirects or referrals from your old domain?
Guessing a bit here. Can you give any more details?

Is there a way you can determine the time SEOMoz crawls your website
I'm a new user to SEOMoz Pro, and having created a number of campaigns I wanted to know if you can set / schedule when SEOMoz crawls your website? Ideally I want to prevent SEOMoz from crawling my site at certain times, but I can't seem to find a way of doing this. Thanks in advance.

Changing the way SEOmoz Detects Duplicate Content
Hey everyone, I wanted to highlight today's blog post in case you missed it. In short, we're using a different algorithm to detect duplicate pages. http://moz.com/blog/visualizing-duplicate-web-pages If you see a change in your crawl results and you haven't done anything, this is probably why. Here's more information taken directly from the post: 1. Fewer duplicate page errors: a general decrease in the number of reported duplicate page errors. However, it bears pointing out that: **We may still miss some near-duplicates. **Like the current heuristic, only a subset of the near-duplicate pages is reported. **Completely identical pages will still be reported. **Two pages that are completely identical will have the same simhash value, and thus a difference of zero as measured by the simhash heuristic. So, all completely identical pages will still be reported. 2. Speed, speed, speed: The simhash heuristic detects duplicates and near-duplicates approximately 30 times faster than the legacy fingerprints code. This means that soon, no crawl will spend more than a day working its way through post-crawl processing, which will facilitate significantly faster delivery of results for large crawls.

Is there a way to see all SEOMoz questions, comments, posts, responses that I've given a "thumbs up" to?
Lots of times I'll Thumbs Up a question, blog post or response not only if I think it's high quality but if I think I'd like to revisit it in the future. Essentially, I want to use a the SEO Moz Thumbs Up as a bookmark. Is there any way to see all the SEO Moz content that I have given a "Thumbs Up" to? I know I can review all the questions I've asked or answered in the "My Q&A" page. Perhaps, I'm just missing a "Thumbs Up" page somewhere on my profile?
