Blog Categories
-
My website is hosted by Hubspot. They provide a blog area and the option to categorize (tag) your blogs such as most popular, most recent, by year and month. On the blog "home page," they also list 10 complete articles scrolling down the page. I have about 150 blogs so there are about 15 of these long pages.
In my moz report, I have a list of pages with excessive links. They are, without exception, the pages with categories or the pages with 10 articles listed. In other words, they are pages that contain a lot of blog articles.
Questions:
Should I ignore these moz warnings?
Should I disallow these pages with robots.txt?
Are these category areas of a blog a bad Idea and should be removed?
Any other suggestions?Thanks,

I don't know Hubspot that well because all my blogging experience is with Wordpress... I'd assume Hubspot may have a way in the backend similar to Wordpress to change the page layout to snippets instead of the full article (which should cut down on the long scroll, lessen dupe content issues & excessive links) and a way to change the amount of articles to show on one page. Hopefully someone with more Hubspot experience chimes in but while you're waiting I'd double check any layout options you have the ability to tweak to see if those could help you.

Best blog practices for website
For my Insurance website blog, I use MOZ to help me find high DA authoritative sites, then either generate ideas from them, or rewrite the copy. If I rewrite the copy, I tend to pull from 2 - 3 top authoritative sites. Just so I don't get in trouble, but still offer the most concision information. _My question is, Is this ok to do? _ Secondly, I just read that on some .Gov sites the information is public, and that you can use it as long as you give credit. _My questions is, how do I tell which information is public? _ Thank you in advance 🙂

Are tags in blogs worth anything in SEO value these days and can i remove duplicate title tags?
I have around 12 duplicate tags in the blog and the general consensus is to noindex./nofollow the tag pages which is not an awful way to do things. Should I just arrange my tags better or remove them all together? I believe it's the fact that the same page can be accessed by 3 different url's because of the tags it's under and that in the tag urls, only teaser descriptions of the posts are being display, not the full post, but the seomoz tools still consider it as duplicated content.

How do you distinguish competitor backlinks by categories?
Hi We are trying to produce an outreach list based on the competitor backlinks using SEOmoz link analysis tool (open site explorer). I have few questions related to this: 1. How many backlinks per competitor would be a reasonable starting point? And maybe suggest a strategy on how these outreach list can be managed over time? 2. Is there a way to distinguish what types the backlinks are? So for example, can we have list of backlinks that are categorised under online bloggers, traditional journalist or article/press release/directories? 3. Should we be more concerned about the Page authority or the Domain authority when creating this outreach list? I look forward to your answer, thank you.

Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands. My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007. I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here? One error that really stands out is this: Description <dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd> On my root page I have: rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/> Thanks for any help...
