I built a website on magentogo - IrisScottPrints.com. The seomoz crawl report states 301 rel canonical crawl notices. What if anything should I change?
-
Wondering if I should remove "IRIS SCOTT PRINTS |" from all the title tags and/or change the url structure of the pages, to not include the breadcrumbs... I don't really understand the whole rel canonical structure thing.
Also lots of errors on page title too long - does that really matter?
Lots of faith in everyone here. Thanks in advance.

thanks - does the name in the title tag of every page affect the rel canonical errors I'm seeing from my seomoz crawl reports.

I can only speak from personal experience, but we've done very well with not including our company name in the title tag. I would think that Iris Scott is unique enough that the competition will be low and you should rank naturally. When you say title is too long, how many extra characters do you have (over 70). I don't know how much of a factor that is outside of viewers not seeing the entire snippet in the SERPS. One could argue that Google would look at that because they want to provide the best experience for their viewers, but I would devote my time doing keyword research instead. Good luck!

Single Page on my client's website is not crawling and indexing new changes. What could be the possible reason?
I made several changes on client's website on different pages, changed titles, add content on few pages, moved blog from subdomain to sub directory. Everything is crawled but there is one page on the website (not part of the blog) that isn't getting crawled in Google and picking up changes. The last crawl of the website is 2 days back whereas that page was last crawled on 30th sep. I just wanted to know the possible reasons and has anyone encountered this before?

Google Index Report
Hi, I have just checked my google webmaster tools account and viewed the index status of my website and it produced the attached graph, which show quite a big spike in indexing during July and August 2012. Does this look normal or does it reveal anything peculiar? We did have a new website launched in June 2012 and I re-submitted the sites URL's to google as part of the re-launch and so I am unsure if this may account for the spike. Any advice appreciated. Thanks indexing.png
