'Duplicate Page Content' for dissimilar pages
-
I'm using Moz's Crawl Diagnostics to try and clean up some SEO priorities for our website (http://www.craftcompany.co.uk) HOWEVER, virtually all of the pages that are being categorised as duplicate content are not the same, or indeed similar.
For instance, these three pages have been deemed duplicated pages;
- http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/pme-rose-leaf-veined-plunger.html
- http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/double-faced-satin-ribbon-black-25mm-wide.html
- http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/double-faced-satin-maroon-10mm-wide-25mt.html
Can anyone give me an insight into why this is?
Many Thanks!

Hi there
I want to say that it may have to do with your canonical tags. For instance...
http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/pme-rose-leaf-veined-plunger.html has a canonical tag for http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/pme-rose-leaf-veined-plunger.html
But, if you use http://craftcompany.co.uk/pme-rose-leaf-veined-plunger.html has a canonical tag for http://www.craftcompany.co.uk/pme-rose-leaf-veined-plunger.html?SID=1c501bb25ab64ab687f30b714dee9969
Your non www. URLs seem to have a SID parameter attached to their canonical tags.
I would check out Google's resource on duplicate content. There are links to help you clean these up. I am not saying that's the reason, but I would definitely clean those URLs up in canonical tags.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Error on duplicated content, but when checking shouldn't been possible
Dear all, Every week I look at the different crawl reports for our website, since the start of my SeoMoz membership the Errors for duplicated content and duplicated Title is rising. But if I take out the .csv file and look in more detail, and select a pages which is marked as duplicated content, a canonical is actually existing on this page. So it shouldn't be an warning, I have no idea what the issue could be. For example pagesare marked as duplicated content, <colgroup><col width="966"></colgroup>

To overcome duplicated content we coded that a canonical tag onis placed on every page with parameters and the main page is http://www.zylom.com/es/descargar-juegos/3-en-raya/ but it doesn't seem to work, because my error warnings are still rising. Please advice me Kind regards, Ms Letty van Eembergen0 -
What is the difference between the Rank Tracker and the On-page Optimization page?
Both of them track keywords. In the Rank Tracker, you add each keyword manually and you associate it with a URL. For On-page Optimization page, the URLs are generated automatically based on searches and traffic?

HTTP 404 for 404-page?
Hi Mozzers! SEOmoz just finished crawling one of my websites and this crawl found 3 errors. One of these errors was the (custom) 404-page, because of the http-status 404. What's you suggestion about this? Should a 404-page have a status 404? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
