Results still being seen for old deleted content
-
Hi,
Our site has a blog. We had "Categories" and "Tags" in our blog. This caused SEO chaos with Duplicate content and 404 Errors.
We removed all the Categories and Tags about a month ago.
Why would these issues still be showing up on Moz as errors on our Crawl Diagnostics page? Do we need to do some thing else other than just remove them from our blog.
Thanks

I'm not sure what you mean by "removed them from your blog," since most blogs have categories and tags to help with internal navigation and organization.
It may be that they are still in your sitemap; so check your sitemap. The other issue is time. It takes awhile for spiders to catch-up with your site.

I bought a 5 year old domain and has a spam score of 23%.....
A few months ago i bought a 5 year old domain and when i went to check in Moz pro the spam score, it shows its at 23%. DA is 1 everything else is 0. The spam score shows 23% but there are no links at all for this website (see image) https://imgur.com/a/3lHjLEh I don't understand, there are no links at all going to this website. I checked google search console, analytics and tried looking for any links linking to this domain and there is none. Even Moz isn't showing any links in the picture i provided above. Is this a glitch? Can i reset my spam score on this domain? Does that mean i wasted my money on this domain and now i can't rank with it? Is there something im missing here. I also checked is there are any warnings or manual actions and it clearly says "No issues detected". A few months earlier i bought a brand new domain very close to the 5 year old domain (new domain has a z instead of an s) and the spam score on that is 0 and DA is 1. Given that the 5 year old domain has a 23% spam score, does that mean i should use the other new domain instead and redirect the 5 year old domain to the new website?

Recent SEOMoz Crawl = Strange Results
Did anyone else get some really strange results in their weekly crawls this week with the campaign tool? Either my ranks sky rocked across three different sites or the tools is busted. Something to the tune of having 4 pages ranking in the top 30 to now having 15-16 pages ranking in the top 30. I'd love to find out it is just all the hard work paying off but i am worried it is the later. Regards - Kyle

SEOmoz crawler and duplicate content
Does anybody know if the SEOmoz crawler picks up canonical tags when its looking for duplicate content? I've got a ton of errors in one of my projects even though they all have canonical tags. Thanks!

Duplicate Content
I have tried searching for an exact example of the issues I am seeing, but didn't come up with anything. I decided to post my own question so I can get a direct answer on what I am experiencing. I recently took over a website and its' existing SEO practices with it. Upon placing the site on SEOmoz, I received many (LOTS) of duplicate content warnings. Pretty much, this is how the website is setup: domain.com/keyword-is-here/ but it is also coming up as domain.com/keyword-is-here/index.htm - Should I setup a redirect so domain.com/keyword-is-here/index.htm points to domain.com/keyword-is-here.htm or should I just leave it alone since it's pointing to the same exact? Any information on this questions is greatly appreciated in advance.

Why am I still Unranked in SEOmoz?
I was very active in SEOmoz's Q&A forums today and completed my profile - raising my Moz points from 0 to 50. On my profile, however, I am still listed as Unranked. Also, I do not appear on the SEOmoz Top Members List next to other users with 50 points. I'm guessing this is something that is updated once a day or so, and the rank will update tomorrow. Is my suspicion correct?
