I don't get what a dynamic URL is?
-
I have a whole bunch of them and I have no idea how I created them. I just make titles, that's it. Nothin' fancy.

Hi
Nice photos by the way
How do you arrive at the pages with the dynamic URLs? Try signing out of WordPress and viewing the site while not logged in.
You have the canonical tag in place, so honestly, there is no duplicate content issue. I'm just curious how you discovered the different URLs? That's not usually something a normal user browsing the site will see, at least not what I've seen with WordPress anyway.

EDIT: It just occurred to me, you probably found these URLs in the SEOmoz campaign tools?

I don't know how they're creating themselves? It's like 1 post has several of them?!

And btw... I don't intentionally have a slideshow set up, but I do have Next Gen on my site?

A dynamic URL usually has something called a query string. In your URL, it's everything after the ? and is typically used to pass data to a programming language.
Some sites use mod_rewrite to change them to look less program related
It's important to note that ANY change in the query string will make Google see that page as distinct, even if there's nothing else different. If you have an issue with this type of duplication you should use canonical to narrow down your pages to just those with distinct content.
If you're adding titles (like to a Wordpress blog) it's possible that you're creating pages and your CMS program makes URLs based on titles

Is that what you're referring to?

SEOmoz report vs. Google's Algo
Hello, I got an SEOmoz Report for one of our clients and the report is showing these pages and many more others as duplicate page content. Thing is the page content is not duplicate however there is very little data differentiating the contents. My question is does Google see the following pages contents as duplicate? because seomoz does. http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_9632/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/newly-renovated-in-victory-park.html/3-2/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/18/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/img_4322/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/historic-deep-ellum-lofts.html/2012-08-18-11-24-30/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/08/pedestrian-friendly-uptown-west-village.html/attachment/13/ http://dallastxlofts.com/blog/2012/06/using-a-loft-for-commercial-or-office-space.html/842-4/

Rogerbot getting cheeky?
Hi SeoMoz, From time to time my server crashes during Rogerbot's crawling escapades, even though I have a robots.txt file with a crawl-delay 10, now just increased to 20. I looked at the Apache log and noticed Roger hitting me from from 4 different addresses 216.244.72.3, 72.11, 72.12 and 216.176.191.201, and most times whilst on each separate address, it was 10 seconds apart, ALL 4 addresses would hit 4 different pages simultaneously (example 2). At other times, it wasn't respecting robots.txt at all (see example 1 below). I wouldn't call this situation 'respecting the crawl-delay' entry in robots.txt as other question answered here by you have stated. 4 simultaneous page requests within 1 sec from Rogerbot is not what should be happening IMHO. example 1

Why is my site showing a redirect that doesn't exist?
I have two sites. www.plasticandfoampackaging.com www.flyfitters.com Previously I had flyfitters 301 redirecting to plasticandfoampackaging. I stopped that about a month ago. I moved the nameservers and stopped the redirect. I am a novice but it seems to be working perfectly. However, SEOMOZ is showing that the redirect still exists. Does the site need to be recrawled or do I need to update the info somewhere? Please advise. Thanks Patrick

How do I get the Page Authority of individual URLs in my exported (CSV) crawl reports?
I need to prioritize fixes somehow. It seems the best way to do this would be to filter my exported crawl report by the Page Authority of each URL with an error/issue. However, Page Authority doesn't seem to be included in the crawl report's CSV file. Am I missing something?

Why aren't DMOZ links showing up in Open Site Explorer?
I have a page that is listed in DMOZ.org, but when I run an OSE Link Analysis, that link doesn't show up. I'm currently doing the free trial for SEOMoz Pro and I'm concerned that other links might not be showing up as well. Has anyone had any similar experiences and/or do you know why DMOZ links specifically might not appear in the results?
