Why are my Duplicated Pages not being updated?
-
I've recently changed a bunch of duplicated pages from our site. I did get a slightly minimized amount of duplicated pages, however, some of the pages that I've already fixed are still unfixed according to MOZ. Whenever I check the back-end of each of these pages, I see that they've already been changed and non of them are the same in terms of Meta Tag Title is concern.
Can anyone provide any suggestions on what I should do to get a more accurate result? Is there a process that I'm missing?

Moz doesn't check only on the title or other meta tags. You could have an entirely different title and if the page content is the same it will bring up a duplicate content flag.
As an example, on our blog we had duplicate content alerts between categories and tag pages (ie Category page 2 had the same content as tag page 20). Instead of changing the contents of the pages (as it was nearly impossible) we decided to add a meta noindex to the tag pages. All duplicate content issues resolved
Anyway, Moz crawls your page once a week, if you did the changes recently, check the date of the last crawl under your campaign overview.

Usually it takes a few days to update the report with the changes you have made! If you think that its more than a week and your files are still not updated in that case it is a good idea to email Moz support at help@moz.com
hope this helps!

Hi Ronald,
When did you make these changes. When you change something, it doesn't immediately take effect. It takes a while and the time varies. Be patient and wait.
Hope you will see the changes soon.

Search Console Indexed Page Count vs Site:Search Operator page count
We launched a new site and Google Search Console is showing 39 pages have been indexed. When I perform a Site:myurl.com search I see over 100 pages that appear to be indexed. Which is correct and why is there a discrepancy? Also, Search Console Page Index count started at 39 pages on 5/21 and has not increased even though we have hundreds of pages to index. But I do see more results each week from Site:psglearning.com My site is https://wwww.psglearning.com

From page 1th to page 18th @ Google
Hello Mozzers! I have a question, you may help.. How may it be possible that a page ranking well (1th result) goes from 1th result to the 18th page just in 1 day? It doesnt seem to be any kind of penalization.. I now had all suspicious outgoing links to be nofollow (they were not before), this may be a cause .. (?) Do you have any other suggestion? Thanks

Changed URL of all web pages to a new updated one - Keywords still pick the old URL
A month ago we updated our website and with that we created new URLs for each page. Under "On-Page", the keywords we put to check ranking on are still giving information on the old urls of our websites. Slowly, some new URLs are popping up. I'm wondering if there's a way I can manually make the keywords feedback information from the new urls.

How do I deal with my pages being seen as duplicate content by SeoMoz?
My Dashboard is giving my lots of warnings for duplicate content but it all seems to have something to do with the www and the slash / For example: http://www.ebow.ie/ is seen as having the same duplicate content as http:/ebow.ie/ and http://www.ebow.ie Alos lots to do with how Wordpress categorizes pages and tags that is driving me bonkers! Any help appreciated! Dave. seomoz.png
