In my errors I have 2 different products on the same page?
-
Hello, I have 2039 duplicate page errors and most of them are 2 different products on 1 page, I haven't set it up in the CMS, how has this happened?
here's 2 examples, the 1st example has ghd's on the back of a different brand and the 2nd has gift packs on the back of the same brand 'rockaholic'? and what does 'norec' mean?

Thanks

Thank you all, I will let you know what the master says about the code.

Can't really do anything in depth here, but this is where the root of the issue is:
1. The GHD irons link (and I suspect this is the case for all the errors) is coming from this product page:
http://www.thehairroom.co.uk/hair-care-products/ghd-straightening-irons
Look at the links being generated in the left hand "Filter Results" menu - they all have the GHD link appended to a different category, and so...
2. ... because your CMS allows wildcard endings to URLs after the product category, this brings up the same page (although this doesn't always work, but the following examples do):
e.g. http://www.thehairroom.co.uk/Tigi-Rockaholic-797658/something-else/norec
http://www.thehairroom.co.uk/redken-styling-products-577765/hello-seomoz-readers
Given that these aren't valid URLs, they should be returning a 404 page, rather than a "200 - OK" result which is why you're getting all these duplicate page errors.
Looks like a bit of a bug / bad design in whatever CMS is powering the site.

I looks like you have some content relation issues done in your backend
If you check the link you posted above in the code, you find following in meta-keywords: tigi bed head
So your system think they are relatedIf you do a search with "rockaholic" you display a lot of "TGIF" products displayed on the left side
My guess is that you have some sort of keyword tagging (tags) in your system that relate your products with eachother. Hard to really know without seeing your system
As SanketPatel state, I also feel "norec" meens "No record found"

Hi Sanket, thanks for your input.
They all don't have products no, but I don't know how they have crossed onto a different brand either. ghd straightening irons is on the back of Rockaholic shampoo range?
It's within my CMS but I cant see how this has happened?

I think "norec" means "No record Found". It might be coming because there are no products on both pages. Can you please check 2039 duplicate pages, all have products ?

What is the difference between my pages' keyword rank and keyword-specific SERP?
I've been tasked with identifying high volume keywords for products our company sells and optimizing our copy and listings to rank higher on Google. The Keyword Explorer and On-Page Grader have been fantastic for this, but as I write my reports, i'm not sure whether SERP or Moz's keyword page rank would be more accurate for reporting results and movement. For instance, one of our product pages ranks #12 for the highest (relevant) volume keyword, but when looking at the SERP analysis for that keyword, our product page actually shows up at #7 down the list. I've tried naturally searching in Google in case it was an issue of private results based on my user data but it seems to give the same result. Am I conflating two different tools? Or is the Moz rank just an estimate?

Is one page with long content better than multiple pages with shorter content?
(Note, the site links are from a sandbox site and has very low DA or PA) If you look at this page, you will see at the bottom a lengthy article detailing all of the properties of the product categories in the links above. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-s/432.htm My question is, is there more SEO value in having the one long article in the general product category page, or in breaking up the content and moving the sub-topics as content to the more specific sub-category pages? e.g. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-Button-Head-Socket-s/1579.htm

Errors in my coding how significant is this regarding rankings ?
I posted a question on here yesterday about the homepage asking for advice regarding the content and then was told by two people were very helpful bbut moved over comment not on content but to say taht the major problem was that the coding on my website basically has too many errors which would result in me receiving lower rankings in the search engines. I realise this website is old-fashioned Dreamweaver template which was constructed several years ago which I've updated and I'm certainly not a professional, but I watch my Google analytics and there doesn't seem to be any significant change in the stats from this time last year. This is the site http://www.endeavourcottage.co.uk/ I realise the site is old format and has been around for several years it's just from customer feedback they seem to think it looks okay for the products old cottages but I guess technically it's not the best now. I have run a test using Silktide Nibbler - a free online service that gives you a good complete overview of your website with an overall score. And it did give my website an overall good score but did point out errors in the coding but when I checked some of my competitors near the top of Google for the short tail keywords some of them also have errors in their coding, very similar to my own error score.. I then went to Google Webmaster tools and there were no warning messages. So the big question is how important are these errors scores when it appears that most of the top competition also are in the same situation? I think it's quite possible I could do with a redesign using responsive design Best Alan

Sudden increase in on-page links
Within one week, the site crawl shows my on-page links going from ~10 to ~100+ Does anyone know of a rational reason for this? Sucuri shows my site is clean, so I don't think it's a hack. 10 seems too low to begin with anyway. Any ideas? Thanks 🙂

Increase of 404 error after change of encoding
Hello, We just have launch a new version of our website with a new utf-8 encoding. Thing is, we use comma as a separator and since the new website went live, I have a massive increase of 404 error of comma-encoded URL. Here is an example : http://web.bons-de-reduction.com/annuaire%2C321-sticker%2Csite%2Cpromotions%2C5941.html instead of : http://web.bons-de-reduction.com/annuaire,321-sticker,site,promotions,5941.html I check with Screaming Frog SEO and Xenu, I can't manage to find any encoded URL. Is anyone have a clue on how to fix that ? Thanks

Canonical URLs and Duplicate Page Content
My website (doctor directory) is getting a lot of duplicate page content & duplicate page title warnings from SEOmoz. The pages that are getting the warnings are doctors profiles which can be accessed at three different URLs. Problem is this should be handled by the canonical tag on the pages. So example below, all three open the same page: https://www.arzttermine.de/arzt/dr-sara-danesh/ https://www.arzttermine.de/arzt/dr-sara-danesh/gkv https://www.arzttermine.de/arzt/dr-sara-danesh/pkv Here's our canonical tag (on line 34): rel="canonical" href="http://www.arzttermine.de/arzt/dr-sara-danesh" /> So why is SEO moz crawling the page? We are getting hundreds of errors from this - and yet Google doesn't have any of the duplicate URLs indexed...

Why There is no Page Authority in none of my websites?
I just saw, SEOMoz updated their Page Authority, Mozrank and Domain Authority. However in most of my websites, the Page Authority got reset. Am I doing something wrong?
