Duplicate page issue
-
Hi Guys
We were recently having trouble with an excessive amount of duplicate page titles. So I asked our web company, at a reasonable expense, to fix the issue which they did. How ever I since note that the issue has returned (please see the attached graph. Could anyone explain to me why this might have happened? I t would be great to have some insight before i go back to them. Thanks again for your help
Regards
Pete

Ok, Here there could be two things, eaither the CMS you are using is keep generating suplicate content which is why this duplicate content issue rise again or someone have made some changes in the website which remove the chacnes done by your developer.
Hope this helps!

Pete,
This is likely due to whatever CMS you are using and/or a given plug in for that. If you have an SEO plugin that automatically constructs the title tags for example, there could be something being done that is causing it to pull from the same data over and over. Before I had someone redo the title tags, I would first take a look at the CMS. Also, given they went in and changed tags and then they reoccurred, I would get clear as to precisely how they changed them and who all had access to the admin side of the CMS.
Hope that helps,
Robert

Moz keyword mention on-page counting errors
Hi. Moz is showing 18 mentions of the keyword 'street furniture' on this landing page https://www.broxap.com/street-furniture.html But I can only count 6 in total in the body copy and 13 if you include navigation links. This is the same on other pages too for that keyword. Does anyone know where it's counting these extra keywords from? I don't want to fall foul of keyword stuffing but as far as I can see we're not! Could Moz be miscalculating? Any help appreciated! Thanks Joe

Too Many On-Page Links Notice
When calculating the number of links on a page, are navigation links included in the total? I have all of my navigation links within the <nav>element. I would think that there are a lot of sites out there that easily exceed the 100 link recommendation if you add up nav and footer links. </nav>

Why is the exact same URL being seen as duplicate and showing an error in my SEO reports
Well, I am still having duplicate page issues. I have a question about one of the errors SEO is giving me when I download a crawl report. I am going to attach a screen shot of part of the report so you can see for yourself, along with explaining it here. SEO shows the list of URL's that it crawled in the report. In this(see attachment) portion of the report it has 321 results for the exact same URL. It also says all of these exact same URL's have received a 404 error. What I want to know is how does it make 321 results for the same URL? And with this error that I don't see when I look at the page? 0hkRDST

Duplicate page content
Hi guys the feedback form my campaign suggests I have to much duplicate page content. I’ve had a look at the CSV file but it doesn’t seem to be abundantly clear as to which pages on my site have the duplicate content. Can anyone tell which columns I need to refer to on the sheet, to ascertain this information. Also if the content is only slightly different, will Google still consider it to be duplicate? I look forward to hearing from you
