SEOmoz duplicate content checker

From my reports in seomoz i can see pages that are showing as having duplicate content but when i click on them it does not show me which pages are carrying the duplicate content?
Is there any way to check this via semoz reports?

Hi Jazavide!
This is Megan from SEOmoz. Sorry about the troubles finding your duplicate URLs! If you click into the duplicate content error, there's a section that says 'other URLs' with numbers that you can click on. Here's a screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/617gjHQFx34
Once you click on these numbers, you'll be able to see the URLs that are duplicates. You can also find this information by exporting your crawl diagnostics to a CSV: http://screencast.com/t/dS0ptEPx
We also have a great resource for learning more about the crawl diagnostics section of your campaign in our Help Hub: http://www.seomoz.org/help/crawl-diagnostics
I hope this helps!

Hi jazavid
Another way you can check is to run a crawl test under the SEO Web Crawler Tool.
Open the results in Excel. You will see the Yes/No to duplicate content question in column L. Column M is headed up as 'URLs with Duplicate Page Content (up to 5)' For every URL that says Yes to duplicate content, you will see listed up to 5 other URLs that are considered as duplicate
Hope this helps

It does show the pages that are showing the duplicate content.
If you go to your dashboard and click on the campaign you want.
Under "crawl diagnostics" and "most common errors and warnings" click on the blue link that says "duplicate page content"
Once you are there, scroll down to below the graph and you'll see the pages there.

All I really wanted to know is if the semoz duplication tool carrys out its full purpose.
So I can see that seomoz identifies that there is duplicate content via the crawl diagnostics but then it seems not to show where these duplicate pages are? So it seems like the tool is only doing half of its job unless i am using it incorrectly?
Anyone any ideas if this tool identifies which are the duplicate pages?
Thanks

If you have a campaign setup you can go to the crawl diagnostics and click on the duplicate content warning to get more details. If not then perhaps you could use Google Webmaster Tools.
Here is a post about finding duplicate content that can help on SearchEngineJournal.com
Usually duplicate content is caused by urls's and can be fixed with 301 or canonical tags.
Hope this helps,

Is one page with long content better than multiple pages with shorter content?
(Note, the site links are from a sandbox site and has very low DA or PA) If you look at this page, you will see at the bottom a lengthy article detailing all of the properties of the product categories in the links above. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-s/432.htm My question is, is there more SEO value in having the one long article in the general product category page, or in breaking up the content and moving the sub-topics as content to the more specific sub-category pages? e.g. http://www.aspensecurityfasteners.com/Screws-Button-Head-Socket-s/1579.htm

Joomla Opencart Duplicate Link Issue
With a few recent catalog changes my client is having tons of duplicate content issues. The most peculiar is one that I cannot see visibly on the site pages. This page: http://www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com/catalog/lights.html shows to have several duplicate content issues with URLs such as: http://www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com/catalog/lights/Lamp-DRW.htmlhttp:/www.CLIENTDOMAIN.com - where the domain is basically added to the end of the first URL. Has anyone seen this? Any fixes, plugins or thoughts? Thanks,

SEOmoz Keyword Difficulty Tool been down for a few days?
Hi All, I notice the SEO moz keyword difficulty tool has been down for a few days!!! I know from support that they say it is going to be a "while" till it fixed, but some type of estimation on how long it will be will be good. Also in regards to the types of accounts, why do the top accounts have the same limitations as the 79/month tool in regards to the keyword tool reports (50 max and 5 per scan)? I mean this is probably a wider question for the SEOmoz team need to answer. Kind Regards.

SEOMoz Q&A having some issues?
Apologies if this has been asked. I was browsing Q&A and got a Ruby error page, reloaded and everything was fine. However a bunch of the topics are kind of messed up, and it looks like a chunk of them are missing now. For example my 'questions I've answered' section of My Q&A only has the newest question and the oldest question, and when I sort the SEOMoz Tools category by newest I get one recent post and then the next one is from November of last year. You guys having database problems?

SEOmoz PRO Custom Reports Issues
This post is for all PRO members, On January 2, 2012, we found a serious bug in our custom reporting system that made it possible for some of our customers to see other customers’ custom reports. This affected less than 1% of our customers in total (.6 % to be exact). Fewer than 100 reports could potentially be viewed by another customer. We are taking this matter very seriously. 98 accounts were affected and we will be contacting those people individually via their account email addresses. If you do not receive an email from us, don’t worry - you were not affected. Soon after we discovered the problem, we completely turned off access to these reports; even though people may have been provided access previously, the access was limited to a short time period. They no longer have access to the reports whatsoever. The issue has now been resolved and all reports moving forward are functioning properly. For more information on what caused the issue, how it's been resolved and any other updates on the issue, follow the thread here: http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/20836338-custom-reports-issues-resolved. We'll add any updates there. Also, we'd like to have all comments/questions from members in one place, so please use the Zendesk link for comments. We really appreciate your patience while we work through this. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us at [email protected] - we're always happy to help. Sincerely, Jen Lopez

New To SEOMOZ, 2 Questions...
Hi, 1. I got signed up with SEOMOZ yesterday and would like to know about the competitive analysis tool. I saw in a demo video of SEOMOZ that there was an aspect of Social links (Facebook etc) included in the analysis, I can't see this in my analysis however. 2. Is it possible to change websites over time? Let say in a few months I want to work on a new website, can I remove one of my 5 and add a new one? Thanks! James

Is there a Tool to compare Duplicate content for non web Live content?
Is there a tool that can give me % of duplicate content when comparing two pieces of content that are not Live on the web? Like copyscape but for content that may not be indexed by copyscape or not live on the web? Does Word or any other program allow you do do this?
