How to resolve when it is saying duplicate content but the content is not duplicate?

Especially since it is our landing page for our blog with multiple excerpt text i.e. growpath.com/resources/

You need to understand that today there are roughly millions of articles, blogs, and web copies already published for content marketing. Many online writers have already written about information that you are thinking about writing.
Checkout the plagiarism level via a tool. It is best to use a premium level tool and see if the content is around 80% to 85% unique and has a rate of 15% plagiarism. Lower than 70% uniqueness can be troubling. So, try and rephrase some words but to not make things too much complicated.
In best case scenario, try to choose topics that are unique, it all depends on your creativity level. Good luck!

I have encountered this in the past. If you KNOW it is not duplicate, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Having said that, in my cases, I just re-wrote the content (very minor changes) and the duplicate content warning went away - all good. Just my 2 cents. Best of luck

Why is Moz Crawl Diagnostics labelling pages as duplicate when they appear to be different?
Moz Crawl Diagnostics is flagging some pages on the Doorfit website as duplicate, yet the page content is completely different and not identical. Example. Page: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/locks-security/secondary-security Duplicate: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/seals-and-sealants?cat=279 Does anybody have any suggestions as to why this might be the case? Thanks

How do I stop these duplicate reports being emailed?
It used to be that I received just one weekly report per campaign when using MozPro. Over the last couple of weeks/month (since creating MozAnalytics reports) I've started to receive 2 reports for the same campaign...with no different whatsoever, apart from the time that they have been sent. I've been back into the old MozPro campaigns and deleted any automated reports that were being generated there, and so now I should have just one weekly MozAnalytics report from each campaign. Has anyone had this problem before and do they know how to fix it? Getting really annoying, especially with 13 campaigns resulting in 26 emails! Thanks

Duplicate Content Report: Duplicate URLs being crawled with "++" at the end
Hi, In our Moz report over the past few weeks I've noticed some duplicate URLs appearing like the following: Original (valid) URL: http://www.paperstone.co.uk/cat_553-616_Office-Pins-Clips-and-Bands.aspx?filter_colour=Green Duplicate URL: http://www.paperstone.co.uk/cat_553-616_Office-Pins-Clips-and-Bands.aspx?filter_colour=Green**++** These aren't appearing in Webmaster Tools, or in a Screaming Frog crawl of our site so I'm wondering if this is a bug with the Moz crawler? I realise that it could be resolved using a canonical reference, or performing a 301 from the duplicate to the canonical URL but I'd like to find out what's causing it and whether anyone else was experiencing the same problem. Thanks, George

Why Moz Analytics says that my site had a 13% traffic increase and Moz Pro says that the same site had 3% decrease on traffic?
Every Tuesday The first thing I do in the morning is check my updates on my Moz Campaigns... Today the numbers just don't make sense... How come Moz Analytics and Moz Pro are showing different numbers? Does any one have the same problem? Which one should i trust?

Why is Moz report showing duplicate content?
Dear Moz Community Our weekly Moz crawl diagnostic repoart is showing a significant increase in "Duplicate Page Content" errors for article pages that have unique content, unique file names, unique META title/descriptions, and unique H1 tags. Where could the duplication be coming from? Thanks for your help.
