Can someone explain the attached on page error message?
-
Two weeks ago, I took down our mobile site and switched to one on dudamobile. However, for some reason, I keep getting this error/improvement message on my on page report. I do not see how I can have a cannocial problem with a page that is no longer there. Can someone explain that and what I can do about it?
Thanks!

Whoops sorry Mike ninja'd me so you have two of the same answers but at least you know the answer is correct this way!
haha

So I'm not sure how dudamobile works in this regard (although I am currently developing a site through their service so this is relevant to my interests) but I do know how canonical tags work.. In looking at the page in question I'm seeing two different canonical tags. One points to the desktop page and the other points to the mobile page. This is a mistake and will prevent either page from being indexed, just as this warning from dudamobile reads. (*PROPS to dudamobile for catching these types of things!)
I can't see the source for your mobile page as it automatically redirects me to the desktop version when I try to access it but basically you want that one to canonical to the desktop site and the desktop site to canonical to itself (or nothing, really.)
But by no means should you canonical the desktop version to the duplicated mobile version of the same page and vice versa. This will cause neither page to be listed in SERPs.
Hope this helps!

It appears that your problem is that you have 2 canonical tags. One referencing the desktop site and one referencing the mobile site.
Remove the /mobile/clearwater/bankruptcy-clearwater-lawyer-attorney.html tag from that page and you "should" be good to go.
Hope this helps,
Mike

Why did I not get on page analysis
I signed up last Friday for a 30 day trial and was hoping to get the on page analysis so I could get cracking on it. Moz said the crawl was done but I have no info for on page analysis which I find really useful when I have used this before. Any ideas and are any of the MOZ moderators able to get the system to perform one so I can make changes tonight for the MOZ crawl again tomorrow? Thanks Paul

Missing Page Titles On The Comptetive Link Comparison Page
Hello, When I do a Link Analysis using the SEOmoz tools I have noticed that most of the pages listed on the Top Pages tab show [No Data] for page title. Any idea why that could be? The page source of those pages have one and only one <title>tag.</p> <p>Thanks!</p></title>

How can I find my past KW rankings?
I want to know how I can find out how a client's site was ranking for keywords at the beginning of the campaign so I can compare it with current rankings. I haven't been generating reports regularly. I kinda assumed I could ask for the reports retroactively. As in, what was the ranking of my keywords from the first crawl done by SEO moz. Thanks!

Crawl Diagnostics Error Spike
With the last crawl update to one of my sites there was a huge spike in errors reported. The errors jumped by 16,659 -- majority of which are under the duplicate title and duplicate content category. When I look at the specific issues it seems that the crawler is crawling a ton of blank pages on the sites blog through pagination. The odd thing is that the site has not been updated in a while and prior to this crawl on Jun 4th there were no reports of these blank pages. Is this something that can be an error on the crawler side of things? Any suggestions on next steps would be greatly appreciated. I'm adding an image of the error spike Xovep.jpg?1 Xovep.jpg?1

Can someone explain to me why OSE shows two different numbers for Linking Root Domains in the header and in the results area?
See Photo Below. 271 in the header, 500 plus in the results section. I just want an accurate number to chart my progress from here on out. Majestic numbers seem inflated too much. Google Webmaster Tools too. g58HX.png
