WP 4.0 Update Causing Major Duplicate Content Errors?
-
According to my moz analytics, my site has went through the roof with duplicate content. There's a nice Mozzer named Abe looking into this with me, but I'm wondering if it could be due to the WP 4.0 update. Has anyone else experienced an uptick like this before? I've never had any problems with the other updates.
Thanks,
Ruben

Hey Ruben,
In all the 4.0 updates done for our sites and client sites, we haven't seen an increase. We're doing our main site update on Monday, which has a lot more content and pages than most of our other sites, so I'll be curious to see if anything changes that we don't already know about.
We're going through a mess with the 4.0 updates across a bunch of websites we did using the All In One Events Calendar with customized coding for display purposes on the front end and we've been cleaning up that mess. The AIO Calendar was giving each site a "fatal error" when switching from the List view we designed to their Calendar view. But as far as any other update bugs, we have been fortunate not to have any other issues.
Hope Abe can find something out for you and it may just be a temporary glitch of some sort. - Patrick

Www and non www / duplicate content / redirects / www resolve issue
I am not getting docked for these specific errors, but I am getting docked for 1 page has a WWW resolve issue and 1 wrong URL in the sitemap... (SEM Rush) but when I use moz, it's not showing any issues. So I have these things set up so far: In .htaccess i have a command that removes the www. 301 redirect from www version to the non www (homepage) canonical on index.html pointing to non www version, I also set up a canonical tag for each page on the site search console with non www, www, https www, https non www all set to non www preference. Also, when I fetch the www version in google search console it says it's being 301 redirected to non www version which is basically what I want.Is there anything that i'm missing? These errors on SEM Rush are giving me anxiety lol.

Error for a page that doesn't exist.
Hi, I'm just trailing this service, and I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can help with. 1. I am getting a high priority error regarding a page not being able to be crawled - a 4XX error. Problem is, there is no such page in existence. The URL is my site/comments/feed It's driving me crazy. 2. I'm also getting errors based on missing meta tags in blog posts. I am adding tags at the time of posting, so I am unsure why these errors are showing up. Actually, I didn't add tags to all posts - but there are errors on ALL posts, even those I added tags to. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks!!! Hugh

Why moz does not update actual keyword possition
I managed to get first place on google by keyword: vervo.lv kravu pārvadājumi in google.lv (it is in first place all this week) But in moz reports it shows just second position? I added so far about 100 keywords to monitor so if it shows incorrect this one how can i trust to other keyword results. Report says it updated on 3. september and it already was in first place. I really need to monitor keywords but if it does not show actual positions it is useless.
