Does using Sucuri block Moz?
-
I am using Opensite explorer on my site which uses Sucuri and it shows 0 for everything. Does Sucuri stop MOZ from reading the link?
I also suspect that using Sucuri has made my SEO suffer because the first page is always saying "redirecting" . Anyone with experience to this? Thanks
-
I use Sucuri cloud proxy and it has never affected my sites in any way. If you tell it to block the IP's or referral domain it will do so. If you do not it considers Moz/ Roger Bot & Dot Bot as white hat and does not block them unless you request that it does.
their user agents are right here

-
you can request that Sucuri check and make sure you are not being blocked. With that said I just ran a test on the site above and the only bots that are being blocked bad bots.
-
if you find this is not true for you simply tell Sucuri.net support inside the dashboard to Speak to support There phone number is 1–888–873–0817 they will tell security operations Center or( SOC) to white list anything you want white listed
-
Could you possibly share a screenshot of the redirect your talking about?
-
Tt sounds to me like you have a redirect issue on your server that could be blocking dotbot ( the bot for open site Explorer)
-
To determine whether or not a robots.txt file or a no index page is doing this please use the tools below their free and will give us a lot of information quickly & make sure your robots.txt is not blocking it.

to re-create a robots.txt file that works and will not block anything if that is the case use this tool.

** last but not least run your site through this tool and make sure nothing is out of whack.**

- http://moz.com/tools/crawl-test ( do not be surprised if this does not work as may use the same bot being blocked by a number of different things)
- If you continue to have problems and Sucuri tell you that they are not blocking it.
- Look into using Deepcrawl.co.uk or screaming frog SEO spider
- I even run a free audit on deep crawl for you if everything above does not work.
I hope this helps,
Tom

Thanks Joe for the thumbs up on Sucuri based on your experience. Have tweaked the settings on Sucuri and opensite is able to detect it. Will continue to monitor it.
Appreciate the sharing of your experience with Sucuri, Joe.

Thanks Abe, you are right. Went to tweak the settings at sucuri and the opensite explorer worked. Cheers and appreciate the response

Thanks for the reply Ryan. Appreciate.
Robot.txt is ok, went to tweak the settings in sucuri and the opensite is able to detect it.
Cheers,
Eric

We do use Sucuri on some of our clients websites with high rankings and no crawl or ranking issues. I agree with Ryan it's some other issue you are having. Just wanted to let you know from direct experience with Sucuri not having any issues for us. Best Regards,
Joe

Hello and thanks for reaching out to us! While I don't have any personal experience with Sucuri, there are certainly website protection tools out there that can mess with our crawl attempts. If you can send your campaign name and web address to [email protected], we'd love to take a look at that for you!

Doubtful. Several sites mentioned on their clients page are showing numbers in OSE. Try out a few from: https://sucuri.net/clients/. Chances are you have a robots.txt issue blocking OSE, the site is brand new, or it's on a tld domain that is currently not compatible with OSE, such as http://example.website If you list your site here more details could be provided. Cheers!

Does Moz register backlinks from Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn?
I've noticed that on sites with decent social presence and regular content posts that Moz isn't showing/recording any inbound links from Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn. Posts are regularly shared via these three channels but no inbound links ever seem to show up. Does Moz not record such inbound links, or are they all disguised using JavaScript or some other trick?

Will Moz move DA from an old domain to the new?
Hi folks, I'm moving a digital magazine of mine, which has a great deal of authority (DA53!) to a new domain, which is much more brandable. I'm curious if Moz ever passes the actual DA/PA numbers to the new domain. Does the tool pick this up, eventually? I know once the domain is switched, DA will show a "1" -- as the domain is brand new, technically. This is NOT a question about authority/link juice being passed, but rather the numbers being displayed by Open Site Explorer. Some authors do look at Moz DA as an indicator of a sites "power" before applying for authorship, so I'm trying to find a way to move to a more brandable domain, while keeping the OSE stats in place. If it's not possible, I'll have to live with it 🙂 Any input? Thanks everyone!

No backlinks reporting in MOZ OSE?
We have a bunch of links and none of them report in MOZ OSE. Does the MOZ OSE tool have a cache that takes a while to refresh? We have recently moved over to CloudFlare and since the move the numbers do not add up. Here is a link to a ahrefs screenshot. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. moz.png
