Duplicate content in crawl despite canonical
-
Hi! I've had a bunch of duplicate content issues come up in a crawl, but a lot of them seem to have canonical tags implemented correctly. For example:
http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Fireplaces http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Nursery http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables?page=0 Aztec http://www.alwayshobbies.com/brands/aztec-imports/-catg=Turntables?page=1
Any ideas on what's happening here?

thanks for that

Hi!
I found the following info in the "help" section:
**I use the rel=****"**canonical" tag correctly. Why did I get a notice? If the canonical tag points to a different URL, engines will not count this page as the reference resource and thus, it won't have an opportunity to rank. We include the notice so you can make sure you're targeting the right page.
Is there any way to ignore or exclude certain errors or issues?
Currently there isn't a way to do this, but we plan to add this in a future version of the application.Looks like it is safe to ignore this, as long as you have your rel="canonical" setup correctly. (I have the same issue btw...)
Best regards,Anders

301 Redirect & Canonical Tags
If I have URL A and need to 301 Redirect to URL B but want to have a canonical tag on URL B pointing to URL A Would this be considered cloaking? My server which runs .net 3.5 does not allow me to do URL re-writes.

Campaign Crawl
I have a site with 8036 pages in my sitemap index. But the MozBot only Crawled 2169 pages. It's been several months and each week it crawls roughly the same number of pages. Any idea why I'm not getting fully crawled?

Duplicate Content
Crawl Diagnostics is returning duplicate content/title tags for every product image on listing pages of my classified site because each image is on a separate url. So this page, for example, http://marketplace.myclassicgarage.com/cars/all/Chevrolet-Bel-Air/24481/ has, among other things, the same title tag as all this page, http://marketplace.myclassicgarage.com/cars/all/Chevrolet-Bel-Air/24481/media/151968 which is one of many different images that are all child pages in the folder /media In this particular case there are over 140 pages with the same title tag because there are over 140 images for this particular car. That is just one listing and there are over 1,000 listings (vehicles) and that number will grow. Is this really a problem? With limited resources, what real positive effect will making all these images have unique title tags really have from a SERP perspective? Keep in mind this being user generated content, there is no way to descriptively update the title tags to something like <title>Bel Air Passenger Side Profile</title>. That is not feasible.

Why do pages with canonical urls show in my report as a "Duplicate Page Title"?
eg: Page One
Moz Pro | | DPSSeomonkey
<title>Page one</title>
No canonical url Page Two
<title>Page one</title> Page two is counted as being a page with a duplicate page title.
Shouldn't it be excluded?0
