Crawler issues on subdomain - Need resolving?
-
Hey Guys,
I'm fairly new to the world of SEO and have a ton of crawler issues with a friends website I'm doing some work on.
After Moz did a site crawl I'm getting loads of errors (Total of 100+ for critical crawler, content and meta data). Most of these are due to broken social links on a subdomain - so my question is do I need to resolve all of the errors even if they are on a sub-domain? Will it affect the primary website?
Thanks,
Jack

please clarify, what CMS do you use?

In that case, you will need to check your configuration, because as I mentioned the behavior of one should not affect the second one.
As I remember Moz use Google Analytics to set up your Moz Pro Account, so you should check both configurations (MOZ and GA) to found the error.
**Good Luck **

Hi Roman,
Thanks for your response, so the website that's showing broken links is http://blog.primarydomain.com
and primary website is https://primarydomain.com/
As you have both said above I guess it won't affect the primary but it still bugs me!
Thanks,
Jack

1-My first question is why Moz is crawling a subdomain, usually, a subdomain is treated as an independent website. As an example take this 2 option blog.mywebsite.com/ andmywebsite.com/ this2 are a domain and a subdomain, Google Analytics, Moz, Search Console will see these ones as 2 independent websites so the error on one site will not affect second one

Canonical urls - do my web pages need them?
Hello, I'm going round in circles with this issue, so hopefully someone can help... The Moz crawl of my website lists a number of pages as "missing canonical url". The pages are all different and do not have similar content. Do I need to add a canonical url to each page? My agency quoted the following (x referencing this page: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/consolidate-duplicate-urls) list itemYou would use Canonical URLs if: list item"...you have a single page that's accessible by multiple URLs, or different pages with similar content (for example, a page with both a mobile and a desktop version), Google sees these as duplicate versions of the same page." list itemThis is not the case here and so we would not propose to change anything. We could add Canonical URLs if the client feels that it is critical which occurs an additional cost. Any help / advice much appreciated. Thanks

New to rich snippets, help needed
Hi, I have an online store selling mens business attire in Australia. I have had my developers add the required code to allow rich snippets. You can see the result here http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?url=http%3A%2F%2Fjsshirts.com.au%2Fmens-business-shirts%2Fclassic-fit%2Fsky-blue-poplin-classic-fit-shirt.html&view=cse I have few questions 1.How can I change the product description? Is it possible to use the product Meta Tag as the description? 2.Under the stars and the review count is this text. The excerpt from the page will show up here. The reason we can't show text from your webpage is because the text depends on the query the user types. Should whateever product description I have used show up here? 3.Is there anything else I need to do to get SERP's to show the snippet? Many thanks for any answers, Jason
