Page Authority dropped to 1 for subdirectory in my site
-
Hey, one of my sites https://www.automationanywhere.com/testing has had all it's pages drop to a page authority of 1 in Moz and the campaign doesnt appear to be indexing any pages from this directory. We launched a new site in this directory on the 12th and havent been getting any moz love since. The pages are indexable and followable, and are being indexed by google and others. The site on the root domain has been unaffected.
Please help me get my moz campaign back on track.
Thanks!

What you will want to do is search for the external linking sites to see if we have crawled them to find your pages. We do not have to crawl your site to find your backlinks, only the external linking sites.
For your campaign settings the correct URL needs to contain www. The current campaign is added as the root domain and since it re-directs to the sub-domain, our tool is only looking to track the root domain version. The campaign will need to be re-created to track www.automationanywhere.com/testing/ and not automationanywhere.com/testing/

This is still an issue for us. We fixed our redirects (or at least attempted), we've waited several months, and still pages other than the homepage for this domain have no page authority (on the moz toolbar) and are not showing as being crawled by the crawl diagnostic tool from within the moz dashboard.
Can you please provide further assistance?

Hello!
Your site has too many re-directs setup which will prevent our crawler from reaching more pages.
Your campaign is setup to crawl the sub-folder www.automationanywhere.com/Testing
which re-directs to http://www.automationanywhere.com/testing (301) which then re-directs to https://www.automationanywhere.com/testing/ (303)
You will need to update the re-direct to be a 301 and re-create the campaign to track www.automationanywhere.com/testing/ with the lowercase sub-folder name.
For OSE it may take a few index updates to catch up and the previous URL had low authority to begin with so to help get index you will need to continue to build strong backlinks on sites with high Mozrank. With our site ourselves having high DA it took about 3 months for our links to be moved over from seomoz.org to moz.com
-
I noticed the campaign is listed as /Testing/, which has a 301 to /testing/. I don't know if this would cause the problem you're seeing or not.
I'm assigning this question to our help desk, because it's out of my area of expertise. They'll be back to you within a day or two (Mondays take longer, since we are catching up from the weekend).

I am having problems with both OSE and Crawl Diagnostics on https://automationanywhere.com/testing. In our campaign for /testing CD says only 1 page was crawled. In OSE/moz toolbar the page authority for all pages is 1.
https://automationanywhere.com/ the parent site is working fine.
-
The update was on July 23rd, so it may have been that we crawled your site earlier in the month (before the 12th) and the new pages weren't included at that point. You should start seeing more in OSE at the end of the month.
Are you only asking about OSE, or also about crawl diagnostics? Just making sure I'm answering the question correctly. Thanks!

KeriMorgret,
Thanks for the reply but we launched the new site on July 12, wouldn't this have been before last month's update?
-
We update our metrics about once a month, so if the site on the subdomain was launched after our last index update in July, that would be why you're not seeing any data. Our next update is scheduled for August 28th.

Open Site Explore page titles show as "No Title"
This has been asked many times but I cannot find an answer. On Open Site Explorer, most URLs I enter show as "No title" which means you have to hover over the URL to see which page is being referred to. I know you'd want an example, so here's your own site Moz.com 🙂 CWrkxZQ

Sudden Spike in 404 Pages Not Found in Moz Crawl But No Errors in WMT
Recently I received a spike in errors from the Moz crawler. When I looked into the matter I noticed that all the URI's looked right but then I looked a little closer and there was a /page/2 and /page/3 in front of the URI's. I'm running a WordPress website. Immediately I thought to myself this must be some kind of caching or permalinks error. So I disabled all my plugins including W3 Total Cache and ran the Integrity Link Crawler for the Mac and found that the errors were still popping up. 404-errors-ncworkercomp.png?dl=0

How can I get links indexed in Just Discovered Links, or Open site Explorer? (Because it aint Bit.ly or Feedly!)
Dear Moz & Forum, I've been on a bit of a merry-go-round with one of my clients. He knows enough about SEO to ask questions, and one thing he likes is to see the links that we are building inside Open Site Explorer. Now, of course we know that it takes a while for links to show, but that was ok, because we could just plug the links that we've built into a bit.ly link and then they'd show under Just Discovered Links in Open Site Explorer, and then boom, we're happy. It stopped working some time ago, and after the support team were a little unstuck I sent a hopeful tweet to @randfish. Here is the response: https://twitter.com/randfish/status/788412272129347584 The advice to use Bit.Ly was removed swiftly after this! Oops! The current Guidance is here: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/help/guides/research-tools/open-site-explorer/justdiscovered It says: Want to see your new link in the Just-Discovered Links tab? An easy way to start seeing your link in the Just-Discovered section is to have it shared on Twitter and available on Feedly link. Feedly stopped supporting their own link shortner a few years ago. Also, when you share a link from Feedly on twitter it is just the same as sharing a normal tweet, because it shares the standard URL for the site not a link to view on Feedly. Or, maybe these two statements are independant of one another and they should both be done separately? I've done that too! I've also added the feed to recommended feeds inside fresh web explorer and that didn't work either! So, Moz and Help team please help me! How can I get links I've built for clients into Just Discovered Links? Thank you!

Domain Authority
This latest report from MOz shows our DA dropping 2 points. I do not see anything that would have caused that? I saw on June 21st Moz wasn't reporting DA is this a Moz issue or should I dig deeper into my website?

Duplicate Home Page
'Content that is identical (or nearly identical) to content on other pages of your site forces your pages to unnecessarily compete with each other for rankings.' Can anyone tell me why this is the case? I know for a fact that their are no other duplicates of my home page, however moz disagrees. Cheers for any help. **Taylor **

Open Site Explorer results are not satisfactory.. is there any issue with it?
Hello Folks, I am trying to check back links of one of my competitors through Open Site Explorer, but the results it is providing is not satisfactory. Competitor URL : goo.gl/xMXHk7 Results provided by OSE : Number of Internal Links : 23 Number of External Links : 100 While the external backlinks provided by other free tools are quite different and more in numbers.. and here I am paying to get accurate data.. Just wanted to confirm whether I am using this tool improperly, or any issue is going with this tool? C6JPxGE
