"redirects" with no "redirect address"?
-
Episode 2 of "Damon the idiot noob" web series . . .
I have like . . ..90 plus temporary redirects in my moz "medium priority diagnostics".
But the majority of them have a url, but no redicret url.
How can it be a temporary redirect if there is no redirect address?
Some of the addresses simply don't make any sense. Like:
http://www.thirdcoastsigns.com/catalog/seo_sitemap/product
How on earth would a "seo_sitemap" be followed my a "/product"?
This is a Magento site, so I know some of these things get created automatically . .. but what on earth is going on here?
Help welcome, appreciated, and welcome.
Did I mention it is welcome and appreciated?

Well, I think Charles may have summed it up, that it is just some CMS wonkiness . . . though I was sorta hoping there was a more concrete answer/solution than that.

Hi Damon! Ever work this out?

First, I got confused, then confused, and confused again.

Magento is a keyword there. Any CMS does some super crazy stuff. Some more crazy than others.
Or it can be temporary MOZ bug. I'd recommend check those urls manually with preserving log in Chrome or something. This way you'll be able to understand if it's actually happening or it's just crawlers fault. If you don't see anything abnormal happening while checking those urls manually, don't waste much time on it, especially those pages seem not to exist or not main pages of the website.
As MOZ says, it's medium priority, there are other things to worry about.Hope this helps.

I see some links on Youtube.com that look like they are "Do-follow" links am I wrong?
Hi, I have some videos on YouTube.com and I notice many of the links show as "Do-Follow" per the Moz Bar. I have a feeling they are not actually "Dofollow" links because they never show up in Moz Pro, SemRush or any of my other tools. Can some of you people with greater knowledge of YouTube please clarify why the links look like "Do Follow". I am specifically thinking of my own backlinks on the videos and also the links in the "Comments". Best Regards, Bill Dalessi

Add to cart redirect using 302
I am getting a list of crawl errors in Moz because I am using a 302 redirect when people click on an item using the quickview add to cart eg:http://copyfaxes.com/cart/quickadd?partno=4061 will redirect them to the viewshoppingcart page. Is this wrong should this be a 301 redirect? There is no link juice to pass. Thanks

Fixing temporary redirects
Hi all, I recently had an issue whereby the Moz crawl was showing up thousands of instances of duplicate content. I solved (or so I thought) this issue on a Magento-based eCommerce website by enabling canonical URL tagging on product pages and category landing pages. This reduced the instances of duplicate content dramatically (by the thousands!) however it created a new issue of thousands of temporary redirects. All of the research I have done has suggested that I should be setting these as permanent redirects somehow, but I am not sure how to do this or how to resolve this issue. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Josh

A 301 redirect to a page with a rel canonical to a page with a 301 question...
MOZ registers thousands of DC and Duplicate titles on a Drupal site which has a little strange setup. Example: www.1234.com/en-us 301 redirects to www.realsite.com/en-us which has a rel canonical to www.1234.com which 301 redirects to www.realsite.com. If you're still with me I thank you.

My question is since MOZ registers errors, if indeed the rel canonical isn't recognized due to a 301 redirect?0 -
"Too many on page links" phantom penalty? What about big sites?
So I am consistently over the recommended "100 links" rule on our site's pages because of our extensive navigation and plentiful footer links (somewhere around 300 links per page). I know that there is no official penalty for this but rather that it affects the "link juice" of each link on there. I guess my question is more about how places like Zappos and Amazon get away with this? They have WAY over 100 links per page... in fact I think that Zappos footer is 100+ links alone. This overage doesn't seem to affect their domain rankings and authority so why does SEO moz place so much emphasis on this error?

My page has a 302 redirect and I don't know how to get rid of it!
I use Internet Officer tool to see the 302 redirect but I check the redirects in the CPanel and there are none. In the .htaccess there are none either. I don't know where else to look 😞 The url is http://servicioshosting.com Can you guys help me? I can't set up a campaign because Google can't crawl the website. I can't setup the Facebook OpenGraph because of the redirect. error.jpg

Can I see backlinks to a specific URL, not including redirects?
Does SEOMoz have a tool that allows me to see backlinks to a specific URL sans redirected URLs? So, URL is www.website.com/search. www.website.com redirects to www.website.com/search and I want to see how many people have linked to the /search, the resulting URL. Thanks for any help! Erin
