Duplicate Content - Multiple URL's
-
I know a few of these problems come from products being in the same categories but I have no idea how to get rid of the url's that are showing duplicate content when the product is in the exact same place. Hard to explain, but here are URL examples.
Any Idea's how to fix / get rid of these URL's?
Thanks!

That must be really frustrating for you Mike.
I am not surprised you can't access them at the back-end as these are almost always a by-product of the e-commerce system. So many don't care about what extra churn the sites produce.
You could always robots out those bad pages? Just something like:
Disallow: /store/pc/www.ocelco.com/*
This should still readily allow everything else to be indexed after http://www.ocelco.com/store/pc/...
Give it a try and then run the site through Screaming Frog and see if these bad pages are then picked up.

Andy,
I agree, I am not getting much help from our developers. All I know is these url's shouldn't be there and I can't even access them on the back end, only the one original product page.
I don't know how to remove them.
Thanks,

What are you using to power the site Mike?
I would suggest looking at the site configuration, or contact the developers and ask them how to correct this, as it looks a lot like a mis-configuration somewhere. 301's might help for now, but you need to figure out why these extra pages are being created because I suspect that if you add additional products, the same issue will surface again.
Also when I look at the first two links, I have a lot of rendering issues, that I don't see on the bottom 2 links. Definitely something amiss.

Couple of Moz's bugs
There are still some bugs in a new Moz: I can still find a lot of mentions of "SEOMoz", for example: in a footer, in a Q/A form (SEOMoz Resources), in a new question form (SEOmoz PRO Application, SEOmoz Tools, etc.) On a main form (http://moz.com/pro/home) sometimes my full name is not visible at all, sometimes my MozPoints are hidden (on a left top corner); There is not direct link from http://devblog.moz.com/ to a main website; Regards.

Site Explorer - No Data Available for this URL
Hi All I have just joined on the trial offer, im not sure if i can afford the monthly payments, but im hoping SEOmoz will show me that i also cannot afford to be without it! In my proses of learning this site and flicking through each section to see what things do. However when i enter my URL into Site Explorer i get the following message "No Data Available for this URL" My site should be crawl-able, so how do i get to see data for my site/s. I wont post my URL here, as the site has a slightly adult theme.

Issue: Duplicate page title
Hello, I have run the "Crawl Diagnostics" report using SEOmoz pro and it says that I have a total of 56 errors. 18 of those errors being duplicate content and another 38 errors being duplicate title tags. Now I have looked at both reports and detail and the reason I am getting there errors is due to the fact the it is checking "http" and "https". So for example: my website is http://www.widgets.com On the crawl diagnostics report, it also checks https://www.widgets.com So it looks like I have duplicate content and duplicate title tags because of this Now my question is this: Is this really duplicate content? If so, how do I fix this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Why aren't canonical tags reducing duplicate page title/content?
We have canonical tags set up for a feature page on one of our sites. This site has an image gallery controlled by javascript. To aid the user experience the image can also be specified by a URL parameter (the javascript also uses this URL to fetch the images). The SEOMoz report complains that the links to these images have duplicate page titles and content. To try and combat this we set canonical tags to point only to the original page, without the slideshow parameter. e.g. http://www.example.com/feature-page/ http://www.example.com/feature-page/?slideshow=1 -> canonical tag set to http://www.example.com/feature-page/ http://www.example.com/feature-page/?slideshow=2 -> canonical tag set to http://www.example.com/feature-page/ The latest SEOMoz report has come back and the errors still exist. What can we do to remove these error messages? Thanks

RSS feed showing up as duplicate content
Hi, I've just run an SEOMOZ Pro scan for the first time and it is picking up duplicate content errors from the RSS feed. For some reason it seems to be picking up two feeds, for example: http://blog.clove.co.uk/2009/05/13/htc-touch-diamond2-review/feed/ http://blog.clove.co.uk/2009/05/19/htc-touch-diamond2-review-2/feed/ Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can resolve this? Thanks
